Wasn't there a post-apocalyptic video game set on the T?

This is not a screenshot from that game. This is Hannah Malenfant's photo of the Red Line platform at Porter Square around 12:45 p.m., after the lights went out. Yes, the escalator stopped working, too, she reports.

No escalator? At Porter?
I think I'd have just camped out until the power came back on.
Walking Dead
Maybe we can offer some tax incentives to bring the walking dead to Boston?
They are on their way to D.C. Maybe we can pay them to keep walking. Id love to see a few scenes with zombies running around the T tunnels in the dark.
Maybe we can offer a part to Martha C since she already runs a pretty good zombie campaign.
Correction
Correction Adam; in the famous works of mitch hedberg, an escalator can never break, it can only become stairs
Run!
The C.H.U.D.S. are hungry and come out when the lights go out.

...bah, see first link. :(
Ah yes, the game that feature
Ah yes, the game that feature's Boston's famous "Capitol Building" and a mall in state st station.
Those look like orange line
Those look like orange line cars... in red... at Park. Neato.
Place is Filthy, Kind of Looks Better Unlit
All of Porter station is covered in a layer of dark gray soot and grime, so the place actually looks way better with most of the lights out.
Metro: Last Light
It's the Russian subway actually, and some parts are scary as hell:

But I think the next Fallout game may be set in Boston?
I find post-apocalyptic media
I find post-apocalyptic media to be more depressing than entertaining but I am willing to bite the anxiety of experiencing a "too close to home" simulation to check out all the parts of the city they'll inevitably get wrong.
Oh, great.
'cause I wasn't already terrified of Porter...
