I think most of the opposition is because we can not trust government to build something on-time and on-budget (See ESA)

Does anyone believe the final cost would be $2B and complete in three or four years?

I guess this explains it. Four tracks are out of service this evening. Because of an Amtrak derailment at Penn Station this morning, the Long Island Rail Road plans to cancel 29 PM rush hour trains out of the 87 that normally depart from Penn Station during this time. The cancelations are necessary ...

Service may be "restored", but the cancellations for this evenings commute have been posted to the MTA website
