47th–50th Streets – Rockefeller Center is an express station on the IND Sixth Avenue Line of the New York City Subway. It is served by the D and F trains at all times, and the B and M trains on weekdays.

The station has two island platforms and four tracks, like any express station, but has an unusual track arrangement. The northbound side has the traditional arrangement (local on the outside track and express on the inside track), but the southbound side reverses this. This is to avoid level junctions with the IND Queens Boulevard Line, which is perpendicular with the IND Sixth Avenue Line north of this station. Express trains come from the Bronx via the IND Eighth Avenue Line while local trains come from Queens via either the IND 63rd Street Line or the IND Queens Boulevard Line.
