Jennie's Diner off of Route 30 in Ronks is still in business. The rather large diner sign is a real eye-catcher off the roadside.

To the right is a pre-automobile era diner that somehow survived into the 1980s (at least). It's the Pelican Diner in Somerset, PA., ca 1985. Despite appearances, it was open for business when the photo was taken.

This was a rare survivor of an original early-twentieth century diner converted from an old wooden-body railroad car. They had a sign inside saying the car was originally built by Jackson & Sharp Car Co of Wilmington, DE in 1906. It may have been converted into a diner in the 20's.

It was located near the Chessie System/B&O (now CSX) railroad yard in Somerset and was patronized by the RR crews.

Tom's Diner on Route 10 in Ledgewood has actually closed. Hopefully someone will purchase it and re-open. What a shame it would be to see this roadside diner treasure disappear.
