Except south of World Trade Center station (where the local tracks end), the whole line is quadruple-tracked, with one local and one express track in each direction. The northern section of the Eighth Avenue Line (north of 145th Street) was once known as the Washington Heights Line.

Manhattan, begins at the terminal station of Inwood-207th Street as a two-track subway. Two tracks from the 207th Street Yard join at a flying junction, and there are four tracks through Dyckman Street before the extra tracks end. Two local tracks begin at 174th Street Yard, north of Washington Heights-168th Street. They come in between the existing tracks, running through the center of Washington Heights-168th Street before moving to the outside. At that point, A service stays on the express tracks, and C service begins on the local tracks.
At 145th Street station, the Concourse Line (B (1) D) joins, with a flying junction just to the south to connect the tracks. Except during rush hours, B service begins at 145th Street; D trains switch there to the express tracks. Between the 59th Street-Columbus Circle and 50th Street stations, a flying junction connects both express and local tracks from the north to the beginning of the Sixth Avenue Line (B (123a) D) under 53rd Street, and another flying junction south of 50th Street connects the tracks from the south to the Queens Boulevard Line, also under 53rd Street (E).
South of these junctions, the line continues down Eighth Avenue to 14th Street, where it turns southeast under Greenwich Avenue to connect again with the Sixth Avenue Line (B (123a) D F V (123)) in an eight track, two level station called West Fourth Street-Washington Square. At this point, local tracks of both lines interconnect south of the station in another elaborate flying junction which allows local trains of either line to continue south on either the Eighth Avenue Line to Lower Manhattan describes the southernmost part of the island of Manhattan, the main island and center of business and government of the City of New York.
