NEW YORK—A classic New York City diner has been saved from demolition -- and is moving to Alabama.
Businessman Joel Owens said Thursday he'll move the Cheyenne Diner in two sections by flatbed truck from Manhattan to Birmingham.

About four months ago, the Cheyenne was going to be relocated to Brooklyn. Now it's Alabama? Perhaps there's some kind of sweepstakes going on, and the winner gets the diner!
