Either way it wasn't going to go through Back Bay and you would still have to transfer.

In theory, one could rectify that with some high frequency service from South Station to Back Bay which is still better than the current method of running down to the Red Line and then transfering to the Orange Line.

Hoboken and Flatbush should cease to exist.

I'd argue that they should be replaced with a rail loop, but I'm a dirty statist.

there are always transfers that would get you to Penn

But at Penn, I'm still riding NYCTA to get to the area around Park Avenue from 42nd Street to 53rd St. I don't want those riders on NYCTA, but walking to a loop station with frequent service to the inner suburban areas and transfers for those coming from the outer areas.

without digging more tunnels

You're slowly catching on to what I think we should do. :-)

You're way better off with just the heavy diesel service

But I'm still stuck with the subpar service that creates a high opportunity cost for commuting for work and for enjoying the core for recreational purposes. In turn, I'm also stuck with the pathetically slow torturous ride on that god awful excuse for a subway. At that point, I might as well just work in some awful suburban office park and stay at home.
