D train
Sixth Avenue express
The D train is a specific subway line in the New York City transit system, running through Manhattan, the Bronx, and Brooklyn.
More generally, a D train refers to any train designated by the letter D in a transit system: We took the D train to Yankee Stadium.
The phrase evokes Billy Strayhorn's jazz standard "Take the 'A' Train," making any lettered train carry a hint of mid-century New York.
