Located at 63rd Drive and Queens Boulevard in the Rego Park neighborhood of Queens, it is served by the R train at all times except nights, when the E train takes over service. The M train provides additional service here on weekdays except nights.This underground station, opened on December 31, 1936, has four tracks and two side platforms. The two center express tracks are used by the E train during daytime hours and the F train at all times.Both platforms have a medium Sky Blue trim line with a black border with small "63RD DRIVE" signs below them in white lettering on a black border. The name tablets read "63RD DRIVE" in white sans serif font on a black border and identical blue trim. Some of the columns separating the local and express tracks have small "63RD DRIVE" signs on them in black lettering on a white border. The station's I-beam columns are all painted Slate Blue with alternating ones on the platforms having the standard black station name plate in white lettering.This station has an upper level mezzanine that is about 1/3rd the length of the platforms. Towards the northwest (railroad south) end, a single extra-wide staircase from each platform goes up to a crossover, where a turnstile bank leads to the main fare control area. There is a token booth and two street stairs, one to the northwest corner of 63rd Drive and Queens Boulevard and the other to the south side of Queens Boulevard near this intersection.On the other side of the token booth, the mezzanine is split into three sections by a wall on the southbound side and a chain link fence on the northbound side. Numerous staircases from each platform go up to their respective outer section of the mezzanine. A small turnstile bank on the southbound side and exit-only turnstiles on the northbound side lead to the main fare control area.On the other side of the mezzanine, high entry-exit turnstiles from either outer section lead to an un-staffed fare control area, where one street stair goes up to the northwest corner of 64th Avenue and Queens Boulevard while the other goes up to the south side of Queens Boulevard near the intersection with 64th Road. The mezzanine has mosaic directional signs in white lettering on a teal border. The center section connects the two fare control areas, but provides no crossover.On the extreme northwest (railroad south) end of the platforms, high turnstiles lead to a single staircase that goes up to either western corners of 63rd Road and Queens Boulevard, the northwest one for the Manhattan-bound platform and the southwest one for the Forest Hills-bound platform.East of this station, there is an unfinished signal tower on the northbound platform and a bellmouth that diverges to the south from the local track. This was for a planned line in the 1930s that would have traveled down Woodhaven Boulevard[citation needed] and connected with the IND Rockaway Line. Another bellmouth from the Manhattan-bound local track diverges north, then curves south above the Queens Boulevard Line to join the other bellmouth.In January 2013, a petition was started on change.org to make use of the bellmouths to connect the station to a disused LIRR line.. }
