I believe if the "7" display on the train is in a diamond then it's running as express, and in a circle it's running local.
<7> = Express
(7) = Local

"That sapling that once grew just south of Wassaic may be long gone, and the Harlem Line’s appearance may have changed over the years, but for decades to come, I can count on it continuing to provide me with funny recollections"

The (7) local operates 24/7 to/from Manhattan.
There is also a Mets Express as well that runs after the 7:10 PM games. It stops at Willets Point, Woodside, Queensboro Plaza, Grand Central, 5th Avenue, Times Square and 34th Street.
