Through this collaboration, the consulate set up the Beyond Duty exhibit, a Holocaust memorial exhibit, on the upper concourse of the Secaucus Junction train station, whose corridors see an average of 26,000 commuters on any weekday, according to Andrew Gross, New Jersey-Israel Commission’s executive director.
