Hi,

I am working on my diner kit and am starting to look at the roof for the diner and the freezer box. What type of roof would be on a diner? Tar paper or crushed stones?

Thanks,

Kevin

Hey, Kevin…

I was researching diners for a scratchbuilding project and I found a couple sites you might want to look at:

Galvanized metal roofing was popular…click on the link for photos:

Hope this is helpful.
