The Old Penn and the New Penn have essentially the same track layout, though some platforms have been lengthened, we now have the West Side Yard, and there are additional entrances and such.

And it was and is a major commuter hub.

Are you talking about through-routing commuter trains? Aside from dealing with the power changes from DC third rail to much higher AC overhead, I think the schedule planning and labor issues would be the most work.

So I don't see much difference between the old and new Penn. The commuter concourse is even much as it was with the old Penn.
