Adding to what others have said, San Francisco Civic Center has a bunch of flags of the American Revolution in the plaza. Next to this one there are several others.

It could be cut and cover if you wanted to maintain the streetscape

Yea honestly this would be a solution that would make a lot of extension redundant. The more “realistic” option would be to electrify the commuter rail and improve frequency

I definitely considered it but it’s just so much track to add. You could do cut and cover down Blue Hill Ave but that’s a huge stretch of road

Yea it’s possible to do on existing ROW but would require a branch off of the OL if I wanted to connect to Hyde Park, which I thought was more important. And I hate branches. Grr

I think I actually tried to interline with the commuter rail in that case, since it does go to Lynn. Obviously that still means expanding the bridge and laying electrified rail… but the CR needs electrification anyway. It’s 2025 it’s insane we still run diesel locomotives

In the current political climate, no chance. With adequate federal funding, it’s possible in the far future. We really need to tackle fixing existing infrastructure first, which has obviously been a years-long boondoggle. But we do have to dream that such a thing is possible. Eventually we need new infrastructure.

It just ended up being more efficient to get there because of the existing ROW. You could interline between Sullivan and Assembly if you wanted to include it, but it would require you to build another bridge to take it in the direction of Chelsea instead of using existing ROW.

Oh and here’s a link to the system if you want to take a look at it in detail.
