Hello, I am doing research on Diners and Lunch Wagons. My general coverage area is upstate New York, but I would be interested in hear about any stories relating to diners from anywhere. I am looking for any information concerning diners of the past or the present. This would include stories from former customers, former owners, pictures or any other recollections. It is always great to place a diner with a family and/or with some of its customers, as this is what a diner is really about. So if your family used to own a diner or lunch wagon, you know of people who did, or you went to a diner as a kid in your hometown, I would love to hear from you. TO HERKIMER RESIDENTS!!! - In East Herkimer the Sanburn Fire Insurence map of 1950 shows a building being used as a restaurant that is diner shaped, but curved on each end. This is at the corner of NY 5, Ward and Arthur where there currently stands a bar. Can anyone at the very least verify this building did exist. The people at the historical society could not. Also, if anyone has any information on Frank's Black and White Diner that stood near the Bowling Alley in Herkimer.
