Greg,

Thanks for the heads-up. Wolfe's Diner is an early 1950s O'Mahoney diner. Here's a link with a (copyrighted) photo, if you scroll just past midway:

http://www.roadarch.com/diners/pa2.html

That blog also has a link to an interior photo.

I don't have any more info on this diner in my files other than what is stated there. It's had that same name and location for a long time.

This building will look very familiar to those of you with a Plasticville Diner. It's schoolwork day, but I'll try and post a photo of my painting-in-progress diner later. The model, of course, doesn't have the curved glass windows at the ends, but the model otherwise nails the O'Mahoney look. (More 1950s chrome-galore to my eye than railcar or trolley.)
