T (New York City Subway service)
T is a service designation of the New York City Subway. It is not currently in use, but 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.[1], 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.[2]
T is also the proposed future designation of service on the planned IND Second Avenue Line. T trains would make stops along Second Avenue from 125th Street in Harlem, Manhattan to Hanover Square in the Financial District, Manhattan.[3] This would be a fully local route. This route might also be expanded to the Bronx and Brooklyn.[4]
T currently appears on rollsigns as a black letter on a white circle, mostly on R32 and R38 rollsigns.
