The East-West rail Alternative 4/5 Hybrid included travel times of 1 hour and 37 minutes between Springfield and South Station, with stops in Palmer, Worcester, Framingham, and Back Bay.

You might want to do some introductory reading about this project before you make ridiculous false claims like "5 hour round trip". The East-West rail study included both travel times and potential ridership, but you clearly didn't read any of it.

Talking about something you don't even have a basic understanding of is foolish and embarrassing.
