The modern equivalent to the classic diner....
Found at almost every interstate highway exit across the country.

I remember those great jukeboxes that they used to have on the counter and in the booths!

1950s MP3 Player Wallbox
"The most beautiful (and possibly most expensive) remote control in the world. A mini tabletop MP3 Jukebox using a Seeburg Wall-O-Matic.

MP3 box (or iPod) adaptor can be purchased here: http://cdadapter.com
If you are happy to take a chance, you can buy vintage wallboxes on ebay: http://goo.gl/YMdrXq "

Coley's Truck Stop - Dermott, Arkansas, 1955
Elvis Presley, Scotty Moore and Bill Black (Elvis and The Blue Moon Boys), and deejay Doug Ward (right rear), were on their way to be on the Louisiana Hayride, a radio show based out of Shreveport, Louisiana. Elvis is wearing blue suede shoes and is holding state trooper Kenneth McKee's revolver, according to McKee.

I love it!
I just had to copy that to my computer.
It's a classic!

Back in the 1950's my Uncle Frank had a diner in Totowa New Jersey.
I can still remember going there and getting a Taylor Ham and Egg Sandwich or two, or three.
I can even remember playing Blueberry Hill by Fats Domino on that little miniature Juke Box thing that was in every booth.

Pappy,
Your post reminded me of this 1950's White Tower in Syracuse NY that sprouted like a mushroom in front of these great old buildings. The White Tower is long gone and the old buildings have been restored.

A lot like the one on Genesse St. in Utica, NY. Ate there many times.

Thank you so much for sharing these pics and stories. I have a soft spot for these old diners in my heart and wish I could find one local to us. Well, I suppose there's always hope. Anyway, thanks all.
