The Pennsylvania Diner That Features A Modern Twist.

1 # The history of The Dining Car.

The Dining Car has a long and fascinating family history. While it hasn’t seen business for quite as long as Pennsylvania’s historic Dobbin House, which played a key part in the Battle of Gettysburg, it has been in business for over 60 years. Joe Morozin bought the original location in 1961, when it was first known as the Torresdale Diner. In 1971, he changed the name to the iconic The Dining Car. A decade later, he opened a newer, bigger location directly next door.
