MBTA Commuter Rail 2050 map WIP

I posted a map on Reddit a while back showing the restoration of all rail service within the Greater Boston area. That post can be found here. Of course, perfectly geographic maps like this are rather useless on such a large scale for displaying services and station interchanges. So I'm currently working on "Beckifying" it for easier observation. I'd appreciate your feedback on it, despite it being very early days. And if anyone wants to take a crack at it, feel free!

Interesting idea. Now I don't live in Boston, so can't comment on anything in that regard and I have absolutely no idea what "beckifying" means

Beckifying is a word I made up based on the name of Harry Beck, the man who created the London Underground map.

Are you gonna try to untangle the Green Line?

The Green Line is untangled a little already on the map. If you zoom in you can see it in the subway network (the thin faint lines).
