Summary:"These projects are enormous," said Ed Kaminski, director of the Maywood Station Historical Committee, which will be honored for its restoration of a diesel-electric locomotive. "But we are an eclectic group of people who know how to get this done, and we did it pretty fast, too." "It is a different place now, it's quiet, it's orderly and it looks like a cemetery that is well cared for," [John Mager] said. "When you go into it, it feels like you are walking into history." Framing the photographs, [Alice Renner Rigney] said, would cost a "small fortune" and space to display them would be hard to find, so she decided to publish a book. The result: "Tenafly's Unidentified Photographer," a 148-page, soft-cover book containing all of the black and white images plus more recent photographs.
