MBTA North-South rail link is the most ridiculously overhyped project in the Boston area. Blue Line to Charles is 100x as important.
- future expansions (assuming you mean frequency of departures) by adding tracks at bottlenecks leading to terminals...

...rather than adding tracks/platforms at the terminals themselves or drilling a new tunnel
-
Not, mind, that NS link is a *bad idea,* just that it's over-emphasized at the moment

They could get good turn-around now, they just don't want to run six car trains that are nearly empty or smaller trains
-
good that they can get good turn-around now; they gotta be willing to run emptier trains tho
-
passengers aren't freight; you can't wait for a train to fill up before you send it off...we need lots of trips *available*
-
so that we can take more trips by train (I'm preaching to the choir here but still)

A lot of it is supposed to be for storage, laying over trains that don't run off-peak.
