Some rush hour trips run to Beach 116th Street in Rockaway Park, Queens; the S Rockaway Park Shuttle serves Beach 116th Street at all times. During late nights, when C service doesn't operate, A service runs local to Far Rockaway only; a special shuttle (the Lefferts Boulevard Shuttle) runs from Euclid Avenue to Lefferts Boulevard. Billy Strayhorn's jazz hit "Take the A Train" (popularized in 1941 by Duke Ellington) made the A train famous. It is among the better-known trains in the system.
