List of New York City Subway services

The New York City Subway system has 28 lettered or numbered route designations.

The 1, C, G, L, M, R, and W trains are fully local, making all stops. The 2, 3, 4, 5, A, B, D, E, N, and Q trains have portions of express and local service. The J train normally operates local, but during rush hours it is joined by the Z train in the peak direction. Both run local, express or skip-stop on different parts of their route. The 6 and 7 are fully local, but during rush hours, express variants of the routes, designated by diamond-shaped route markers, are operated alongside the locals in the peak direction. The F has portions of express and local service, but during rush hours, an express variant of the route, designated by a diamond-shaped route marker, is operated alongside the local in Brooklyn in the peak direction. The letter S is used for three shuttle services: the 42nd Street Shuttle, Franklin Avenue Shuttle, and Rockaway Park Shuttle. The subway normally operates 24 hours a day with five different service patterns: rush-hour, midday, evening, weekend and late-night. Each service has a table in its article to show what tracks are used and when. This article lists all the current services, along with their lines and terminals and a brief description; see Unused New York City Subway service labels for unused and defunct services. In the New York City Subway nomenclature, numbered or lettered "services" use different segments of physical trackage, or "lines". The services that run on certain lines change depending on the time of day.
