Diners #121-125

Two things for news

Forbes Diner has moved from storage in New Haven, CT to Salisbury, CT, a very small bedroom community which seems to become a weekend jaunt for the metro NYC crowd.  Located in Northwest Connecticut.
Cindy's Diner in Fort Wayne, Indiana moves in early June, and closed up on May 30.  I just realized I do not have a digital photo of the place.

But lets start with the Forbes Diner.  The first picture is from recent.  This is the first half of the diner to arrive in Salisbury, CT.  Two gentlemen were right to work on the diner.  Lets hope the progress moves forward.  I hope the owner has permits to get the diner on a location and open.

The second photo is from a couple of years ago, and shows the diner in New Haven.  Supposedly, the diner sat at this location for a total of six years.

Philipsburg's Key City Diner in New Jersey sits on heavily traveled US Rt 22 a few miles from the Pennsylvania Border near heavily traveled I-80.  The diner is an iconic place, and fortunately has not been altered too much, which is rare air for New Jersey.  The diner does has an addition built on to it in retro style, but this side shows the original diner.

The Jolly Donut in Sandusky, Ohio is one of my favorite or regular stops on the way out west.  Only open breakfast and lunch, the place usually works out perfectly for an early breakfast in either direction most of the time.  The exterior is bricked over, but much of the original Mountain View, including the tag, are still left to enjoy.  The prices are also very reasonable.

Darby, Connecticut is home to the newest style of diner.  I don't know what you call it, but it looks like any ole chain store, tacked on to a diner shell.  I am not sure how old the actual diner is, but I think this was a remodel.

A very non-descript environmental diner with some slight updating on the mansard roof can be viewed in Whippany, New Jersey.   Not much to see here, move along.
