I say this as someone who would support it, but the Cross Harbor Freight Tunnel is pretty much vaporware.
It isn’t the only issue; apparently double stack has issues with third rail electrification, which is the norm on New York City area commuter rail, so even if you built the tunnel, a double stack train may not be able to go much further.
