The D Sixth Avenue Express is a service of the New York City Subway. It is colored orange since it uses the IND Sixth Avenue Line through midtown Manhattan. Its normal service pattern is from Norwood-205th Street Street in the Bronx to Coney Island-Stillwell Avenue (BMT West End Line station), running local in the Bronx and express in Manhattan and northern Brooklyn. During rush hours, Bronx service is express in the peak direction (and the B is extended to serve local stops), and during late nights, only Manhattan service is express.

The DD designation was only used once, in December 1962, during a water main break at Sixth Avenue and 18th Street. It ran local between Norwood-205th Street and Coney Island-Stillwell Avenue, making all stops, and using the IND Eighth Avenue Line north of West Fourth Street-Washington Square but the IND Sixth Avenue Line south.
