Here are a few....

N/R/W - 2 tunnel bellmouths located south of Whitehall Street

E - The extra tunnel extension north (east) of Parsons-Archer

D/M/N/R - Lower level of 36th Street/4th Avenue

F/V - 2 stubs extending about one train-length south of 2nd Avenue (middle tracks where the V terminates)

F - Though mentioned already, 2 stubs located adjacent to Lexington Avenue - 63rd Street

N/Q/R/W - Two tunnel extensions, no track, north of 57th Street - 7th Avenue adjacent to the local tracks

A/C - Only seen by employees of NYCT, there are tunnel sections closed off by a false wall north (east) of the C relay tracks at Euclid Avenue, with mention that not far beyond that is a partially built station underground there at 75th Street

G/R/V - Tunnel bellmouth located off the northbound local track at Roosevelt Avenue, also a little way down by Woodhaven Blvd (Slattery Plaza) are additional tunnel bellmouths, all together would have lead to a line known as the Winfield Spur

D - North of 205th Street, though used for D relays, is a trainlength tunnel extension on both tracks, slated to had become a line extending towards Co-Op City originally

2nd Avenue - And of course we must mention the 2nd Avenue "stubway" segments

F- 179th Street, the small layup yard on both levels north (east) of 179th Street Station, which was planned for an extension of the F train to the city line (Braddock Avenue I believe)

R - 95th Street, very small tunnel bellmouths for a one time planned extension to Staten Island

N/Q - Just off the Manhattan Bridge after entering into Manhattan lie the remnants of the connection between the J/M/Z and the Broadway Line
