Was there in April 2017, on the way back from hiking, and had two hot dogs + chops and Coke. It was excellent.

Jerry the owner has bought a new portable hot dog maker that he has sitting on a trailer at his diner. He's currently testing it out. Pretty cool machine. He blew the steam whistle for us while we were there.
The way he talked, it sounded like he may be closing the World's Smallest Railroad Diner. He was talking about just using his new hot dog maker where he can put it away in a building every night.

Jerry is the owner of the Black Diamond Diner ("World's Smallest R.R. Diner"). He makes a great Coney Island Dog.
[Josh Williams, 06/04/2016]The Black Diamond Diner is only open in the summers. Cute little diner we spotted on the way home. Great food, plenty of outdoor seating.
