The Newfoundland Station + Clinton Road
The RR station used in this movie is located at Newfoundland, NJ.
This station happens to be in the vacinity of 'long spooky' Clinton Road, for a long time considered by some of the locals as "spooky", with weird happenings supposedly along its long "scarey" artery.

It would have added another texture to this movie if the writer(s) penned up something about some spookiness from a "Clinton Road" tie-in. Not some teenagey slasher thing but just something like what M. Night Shyamalan might have conjured up to give this already nice tale a little bit of weirdness & fright.
Clinton Road is, what one would, say, "just up the street a way; walking distance," from Newfoundland, NJ train station.
