I remember my father talking about Ted Forker's Diner. One day as I was passing "Floyd's Diner" on North Olden Avenue with my Dad, I mentioned that I stopped in there many mornings going up North Olden Avenue to my job at the Trenton Bearings Company. Pop said Floyd's reminded him of Ted Forker's Wagon on Perry Street. He went there very frequently when he first came to this country from England in the teens. It was the home of the ten cent hamburger and nickel cup of coffee. He had a very busy diner, and most of his customers were working men. Most of us who are interested in local history have seen many articles relating to "Ted Forker's Lunch Wagon."
