In January of this year, I posted a bit of information about Mickey’s Dining Car, in Minnesota.

The pictures were not mine, but I alluded to the fact that I would do “Diner Runs” once in a while.

So I've pulled some pictures out of the shoebox, dusted them off and scanned a few.

So herewith are some pictures of diners that Ruby (my red BMW ) and I visited in the mid 80's.

This is the Skylark Diner, in Edison, New Jersey. I understand that the new owners have retro-fitted this 50's diner so that it looks like something from out of the Jetsons cartoon show. Oh well.


And this is the Newark Diner, (as if you couldn't tell), in Newark, New York.
It is one of the few ceramic and wood diners that I have seen.
There is another in the Finger Lakes area of New York, and I believe the Miss Oxford, in Oxford, PA. is also constructed mostly of wood on the exterior, but the most famous one is the Wellsboro Diner, in Wellsboro, PA. It is a Sterling Diner.


Now this was a busy diner, located in north Philly.
Look closely, and you will see the name (Oak Lane Diner).
It is a Paramount Diner, and apparently has been sold.

I have also visited, the American Diner, Bob's Diner, the Domino Diner, in Philadelphia.
Daddypops Diner, the Gap Diner, the Mayfair Diner, the Melrose Diner, the Oak-Elm Diner, in Tom's River, N.J., the Penrose Diner, and Zinn's Diner, with my old friend Dot.
The Red Robin Diner, in Johnson City, New York, the Miss Batavia Diner, in Batavia, N.Y., and the Miss Albany Diner were done by myself. While the Salem Diner, the Skyliner, and the Worcester Diner, in Boston, were with my friend Woody.
