How does that work? Just hop on when it stops to discharge in Worcester and pretend you got on in Springfield if they ask for a ticket? You can't book from Worcester to Boston on the Amtrak site directly...

In my experience they don’t mind. For instance, coming back from Chicago I was supposed to get off in Boston but they let us get off in Worcester. Since you’ve paid for the ticket I mean you’re not doing anything wrong - though it is actually not possible to book a ticket from Worcester to Boston through amtrak so it is a bit of an exploit
