I still can't believe that no one has found a video of this yet! Like did it actually exist or did we all just collectively hallucinate this catch phrase?

Doubtful. No other routes pass through there and I highly doubt that they're gonna put down new tracks to connect it to anywhere else. The only reason why it's on the Framingham/Worcester line is cause the tracks already passed through the area. All they did was add the new station to the existing line.

Riding on the roof of the train. Not really possible in tunnels but dumb kids do it on elevated/outside trains. You can find videos on youtube of kids doing it. I know it was popular in NYC in like the 80s/90s or something, died out for a bit, and now seems to be having resurgence. And yes, kids have lost limbs and even died doing this.
