Excellent. Dark red is such a wonderful color! Have you considered a plate layer of dark red underneath the yellow roof? Kind of sandwiching the yellow part between dark red?

It’s been so long since I built it (five years ago???) that it’s hard to remember. I do remember wanting to keep it pretty close to Tom’s original design. I did widen it (of course;-) and augment the roof a bit, but other than that, I kept it pretty faithful to the original. I remember considering it, but I think a plate-brick-plate sandwich would be too thick. Perhaps a 4 plate sandwich would work, but I don’t think that plate comes in yellow.

I just checked the original; I actually DID add that plate trim to the top, though I’m pretty sure that when Tom originally built the Diner, that curved plate element didn’t exist...
