Extending the subway to Secaucus would work better. Unless you happen to be going right to the commuter rail station, you're transferring to the subway anyway.

I'm thinking a 4 track tunnel for the L and 7; run the L on local tracks and maybe have a few extra stops along the way, and the 7 on the express tracks direct to Secaucus. Since the 7 uses narrower cars, this maximizes reroute potential (or at least it would if they were both using the same CBTC system... might be some complex handoffs needed there). But assuming signalling could be worked out, both lines could use either set of tracks, except for the station itself at Secaucus.
