The T Second Avenue Local[1] is a future rapid transit service of the New York City Subway. It will be colored turquoise on route signs, station signs, and the official subway map, since it will use the IND Second Avenue Line through Manhattan.
The T service will operate at all times between 125th Street in Harlem and Hanover Square in the Financial District.

History[edit]
T was previously used for a service on the BMT West End Line, originally BMT 3. It was discontinued in 1967, but a shuttle, designated TT, continued into 1968,[2] when it was replaced by the B train via Sixth Avenue in Manhattan. With the closing of the Manhattan Bridge's north side in 2001, the B in Brooklyn was replaced by the W via Broadway. In 2004, the Manhattan Bridge reopened for subway service and the W was replaced by the D via Sixth Avenue.[3]
T currently appears on R32 rollsigns as a black letter on a white circle.
