L Train (Manhattan Local)

The L 14th Street–Canarsie Local is a rapid transit service in the B Division of the New York City Subway. Its route emblem, or "bullet," is colored medium gray since it serves the BMT Canarsie Line.

The L operates at all times between Eighth Avenue in Chelsea, Manhattan, and Rockaway Parkway in Canarsie, Brooklyn. It also briefly enters Queens at Halsey Street, serving the neighborhood of Ridgewood. Notably, it is the first New York City Subway service to be automated using communications-based train control.

The L commenced its current route and service pattern upon the completion of the Canarsie Line in 1928. Express trains formerly ran along the L's trackage in central Brooklyn and along the BMT Fulton Street Line in eastern Brooklyn, but this service was discontinued in 1956. Since then, the L has been entirely local.
