In the New York City Subway there are three types of terminal stations:
* Station where a train proceeds beyond the station, like at a non-terminal station, and returns to service on another track.
* Station with one or more tracks, often with bumper blocks at their end. A train terminates on all applicable tracks and changes direction.
* Station where a train terminates on a track that is (or can be) also used as a through track.
Also, a station can be:
* terminal-only (like Flushing–Main Street (IRT Flushing Line))
* terminal for some services and through station for other services (like Bedford Park Boulevard (IND Concourse Line))
