Chung Sing Restaurant
Ardmore, PA
The Chung Sing Restaurant occupies a 1952 Fodero that was once known as Dean's Diner. I don't know how long Chung Sing has been there or when the diner's interior was remodeled and a tile roof added. In 2001, the restaurant/diner was going to be demolished. Then, it was decided it would be saved and sent to the American Diner Museum's "holding pen" in RI. However, as of 2007, it's still here, in great shape, and apparently doing well. For more, see this website.

Ingleside Diner [gone]
Thorndale, PA
The Ingleside Diner, originally Zinn's Diner, was a 1956 Fodero. This large L-shaped diner arrived in seven pre-built sections. It was owned by Christian Zinn who had two other diners already in the area (Zinn's Diner and the Town Diner). In 1966, this diner was sold and renamed the Ingleside Diner. The downstairs banquet room was still called the "Zinn Room". The diner sat 99 (83 in booths/tables, 16 at stools). The diner closed in late 2001 and was sold in 2003. A Wawa convenience store was built on its former site. There were plans to move this diner to St. Louis, MO in 2004. However, it was left to rot beyond repair in Lancaster, PA.

former Pushnik's Diner
Lebanon, PA
Pushnik's Diner was the original occupant of this 1960 Fodero. It later became "D'Alexander's" and featured rock bands on weekends. By 2003 (top photo), it was closed and for sale. In 2007, it reopened as the "American Classic Restaurant" (bottom row of photos). However, that venture only lasted a few months. In 2010, the diner reopened as Marabelle's Restaurant. The sputnik sign that was on top of the plastic box sign is now missing. For more, see this website.
