The outside of the Tenafly Station has been restored to its original colors.

The waiting room is a dramatic eating area.

The original ticket window is a serving food pass through.

The north half of the Station houses the service and display area.

A copy of the original the 13 foot long 1857 engineers Northern RR design map hangs by the main entrance.

One rest room is wall papered with a PRR steam engine bearing down on you.

The variety of deserts on sale is overwhelming.

Yes, and one of the neatest pieces of NJ Rail History. A gorgeous structure and a reminder of many others from the past and distant past (pre-1900) no longer with us.

The line itself isn't yet useful for getting around the traffic congestion in northeastern Bergen County, though...

...not to mention the wonderful 2 (3?) seat ride proposed for Manhattan commuters.
