| "Forest Diner"
 The Forest Diner, an original
  Silk-City dining car (now hidden behind additions and siding) has dished out
  coffee and eggs in Howard County, Maryland since 1946 - when the county was
  more farmland than wealthy sleeper-suburb. Sixty years and two owners later,
  the diner boasts some of the same loyal customers - and the business
  struggles to find its niche among a rapidly changing demographic. |  |  |
