^ The tunnels are at capacity as it is now, something that always annoys me when I have to use Penn Station and its just approaching crunch time. There are always delays because there is simply no room. You can see trains entering and leaving the west side railyards when you enter Penn Station. Having those trains running through the tunnel as well would bring everything to a stand still. Let's not even bring Amtrak into the mix, which has a big say on everything also. The development over the railyards of Grand Central is something everyone can look to when considering the future of this one. Today, no one even thinks or imagines those rails are down there because the way its been developed above.
