Reply to "Trains, Trolleys, and Diners: The real story"

Please don't stop !!  Not boring. I wish I had saved all your posts and photos, it would make a great book. I imagine the RR cooks were like the diner short order cooks-poetry in motion. The crack the eggs and have them on the grill, toast in toaster, bacon frying,  smear butter on without missing a beat.  State College  had a diner where we went that was famous for their buttered fried sticky buns.  We would sit there and watch the cook( a collegiate wrestler) at work. He was the bouncer too. Some wise guy kept touching the waitress where he shouldn't have, he was politely asked to stop but didn't so he was hauled outside and body slammed.  That ended that and the cook went back to the grill. I don't think the dining car kitchens fit a commercial  need too well.
