Also, what would you do for the years during which the tunnel would have to be closed for construction? Where would the trains come from and go to? How are you going to acquire the right-of-way to build all that? How expensive would it be to tunnel further under the west side?

It's an idea, just not a good one...

I just want to point out that you're responding to an article I posted and not my words.
