Derailed Diner

This is a truck stop diner with a twist. "A little bit off the beaten track." Outside it looks like a train has derailed and a couple of boxcars crashed through the walls into the parking lot. Inside has a school bus (Of which the backdoor of the bus is the exit from the kitchen to the dining room). Some of the tables are made to look like you are eating off the lowered tailgate of pickup trucks. This is all done very well and is worth a peek. We did not eat here so cannot say anything about the food.
