for all you above who joked about getting one for your living room, here is your big chance:

The Boston South Station flapping departure board is up for sale on Ebay, starting at $500:

They don't really market it very well, do they? Not providing any great history or info that make people want to buy it, and then this great line:
"...The bidder is responsible for all costs for transporting the sign and damages caused when removing the sign from South Station when taking possession..."

ok, who here is going to buy it!

and the article that announced it:
