If trains take so long to stop, how do subway trains stop so quickly

I know subway trains probably weigh alot less than freight trains, but I’d imagine they are still super heavy so how do they manage to stop so quick?

A freight train weighs about 150 times more than a subway.

Not 150%. 150x. It’s a massive difference in scale between the two.
