I know it’s asking a lot from the Feds, but a good long term plan should be to electrify the BOS - SPG - HFD - NHV route to allow an alternative NEC route around the CT shoreline.

That’s the plan. Dual mode multiple unit trains like Stadler FLIRTs and just run diesel west of Springfield since CSX wants to be a little bitch about electrification on that part of the track. An electrified Inland high speed corridor would do wonders for the state.

Edit: plan I’d like to suggest***
