MBTA North-South rail link is the most ridiculously overhyped project in the Boston area. Blue Line to Charles is 100x as important.

I disagree that it's overhyped. Improves connectivity, scheduling, removes need for future expansions

- scheduling: a 2 track line w 4 track stub terminal ought to be turning trains around every 10 minutes, maybe better

- 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
