The E Eighth Avenue Local is a rapid transit service of the New York City Subway. It is colored blue on route signs, station signs, and the official subway map, since it runs on the IND Eighth Avenue Line through Manhattan.

The E service operates at all times. The normal service pattern for the E is from Jamaica Center–Parsons/Archer in Jamaica, Queens, to World Trade Center in Lower Manhattan via Queens Boulevard and Eighth Avenue, running express in Queens and local in Manhattan.

During late nights, the E service runs local along its entire route. It also serves two local stops in eastern Queens (75th Avenue and Briarwood–Van Wyck Boulevard) on evenings and weekends.

Limited rush hour service runs fully express [E signs are located above the express tracks at Parsons Boulevard, showing that trains skip 169th Street. Part of one of these signs can be seen in [http://www.subwaynut.com/ind/photos/parsonsf4.jpgthis 2004 photo] .] to 179th Street at the end of the Queens Boulevard Line in Jamaica. This service pattern was added in 2001, when the NYCS|V service was introduced to allow Queens Boulevard Line customers to reach stations along 53rd Street in Manhattan. The following lines are used by the NYCS|E service:
