Frank James was arrested Wednesday afternoon in New York City.
Police say James, 62, attacked straphangers in the tunnel between 59th and 36th Street stations in Brooklyn, shooting 10 people and injuring 13 more.
Detectives believe James entered the subway at the Kings Highway station.
CBS2 obtained exclusive surveillance video that appears to show James walking down Kings Highway at 5:15 a.m. Tuesday, wheeling a cart down the street and carrying a bag.
ABout three hours later, it was sheer terror for riders, who ran for their lives through the smoke and away from gunfire.
Police say when the train stopped in the tunnel between 59th and 36th Street stations, a man in a gas mask unleashed smoke bombs and unloaded 33 shots.
Fortunately, every single victim is expected to be OK, and many have already left the hospital.
Police say James left behind a bag with a hatchet, two gas canisters and a single automatic handgun that apparently jammed, perhaps saving lives. He is also connected to some concerning social media posts and uploaded videos to YouTube in March when he spoke about crimes in city subways.

The man accused of unleashing a barrage of gunfire on a subway train in New York City will be held without bail until trial on federal terror charges. Frank James, 62, appeared in court on Thursday, for allegedly violating a law barring "terrorist attacks or other violence" against mass transit systems. He was apprehended following a huge manhunt for the lone suspect behind the attack, which injured 23 people. He did not enter a plea. His lawyer requested a psychiatric report. If convicted, he faces life behind bars. The suspect "committed a heinous and premeditated attack on ordinary New Yorkers during their morning subway commute", said US Attorney Breon Pearce in a statement announcing the charges. Police alleged the defendant donned a gas mask and threw two smoke grenades on the floor of a Manhattan-bound N train before opening fire around 08:30 (12:30 GMT) local time on Tuesday. He is accused of shooting 10 people and injuring at least another 13. The suspect escaped after the attack, police said, but left behind several incriminating personal items, including a key to a U-Haul van that he had rented, as well as a bank card with his name on it. There was also a Glock 9mm handgun legally purchased in Ohio under the name "Frank Robert James". He reportedly called police himself to report his whereabouts on Wednesday, US media said, citing sources in law enforcement.
