The Q Broadway Express is a service of the New York City Subway. It is colored yellow on the route sign (either on the front and/or side - depending on equipment used) and on station signs and the NYC Subway map, as it represents a service provided on the BMT Broadway Line through Manhattan. It follows the same service pattern at all times, running express in Manhattan and local in Brooklyn from 57th Street in Midtown Manhattan to Stillwell Avenue in Coney Island. Q was introduced as a service identifier for the Brighton Beach Express via Broadway (Manhattan) on the rollsigns of the R27 class of subway cars as they were delivered beginning in 1960 and on all subsequent equipment ordered for the IND/BMT divisions of the New York City subway system. The former designation for the service was the number 1, itself introduced in 1924, a designation shared by all Brighton Line mainline services. The designation did not appear on earlier equipment that carried the former route number until after the opening of the Chrystie Street Connection opened in 1967. Therefore older equipment that carried the number 1 (notably the D-type Triplex) continued to be signed "1" until they were withdrawn in 1965.
