one cannot go from the Broadway –Seventh Avenue Line to the Lexington Avenue Line using the shuttle tracks and vice versa), though the tracks are used to transport trains to and from Livonia Yard in Brooklyn. It is not possible to operate through service on this line (i.e. On the 42nd Street Shuttle, there are track connections to the IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line at the west end and the IRT Lexington Avenue Line at the east end.Between Bowling Green and the South Ferry loops, the IRT Lexington Avenue Line and the IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line have crossovers on the balloon loop tracks.At West Fourth Street–Washington Square, there is an unused connection between the local tracks of the IND Eighth Avenue Line and those of the IND Sixth Avenue Line.At DeKalb Avenue, there is an unused connection between the BMT Brighton Line and the BMT Broadway Line via the Montague Tunnel.At Prospect Park, the tracks of the BMT Franklin Avenue Line become the local tracks of the BMT Brighton Line.At Broadway Junction, there is an unused flyover between the BMT Canarsie Line and the BMT Jamaica Line.Coney Island–Stillwell Avenue see above.In some places, there are track connections within the same division that are unused in regular service. BMT West End Line / South Brooklyn Railway (Brooklyn) (BMT/Mainline RR).Linden Yard (Brooklyn) (BMT/IRT/ LIRR) trains from the BMT Canarsie Line and IRT New Lots Line.Concourse Yard (Bronx) (IND/IRT) trains from the IND Concourse Line and IRT Jerome Avenue Line.Coney Island Complex (Brooklyn) (BMT/IND) trains from the IND Culver Line, BMT Sea Beach Line and BMT West End Line.207th Street Yard (Manhattan) (IND/IRT) trains from the IND Eighth Avenue Line and IRT Broadway–Seventh Avenue Line.These connections are located within the subway's rail yards and are not intended for revenue service.

There are three exceptions: the IND Crosstown Line, which does not carry services to Manhattan, is colored light green the BMT Nassau Street Line, which runs only through Lower Manhattan, is colored brown and all shuttles are colored dark gray.

For example, the line under Eighth Avenue is the IND Eighth Avenue Line. Each section of the system is assigned a unique line name that begins with its original division ( IRT, BMT or IND).
