Dyckman Street is a station on the IND Eighth Avenue Line of the New York City Subway. Served by the A train at all times, it is located at the intersection of Dyckman Street and Broadway in the Inwood neighborhood of Manhattan. The station has four tracks and two side platforms. A full-time fare booth is located on the southbound side at platform level, with a crossunder leading to the northbound platform. Just to the north, the center "express" tracks diverge to the 207th Street Yard; to the south, they merge with the local tracks. Some northbound A trains terminate at Dyckman Street and continue to 207th Street Yard using these center tracks.
