The project is supposed to cost $2.4B for a 7 line extension to Javits.

However, a simple shuttle from Penn Sta to the West Side yard would cost well below $100 million. That's my baseline for comparison.

One problem with easy availability to funding is the propensity to use it regardless of lower cost alternatives. Military spending comes to mind.
