A little digging would suggest that this was once Flannery's restaurant in Penndale PA and the aircraft "parked" on the roof was used as a cocktail lounge and for parties, but sadly is no more. The place closed in '97 after the place fell into a state of disrepair. The plane was taken to Delaware air force base in Dover.
The BP gas station that now occupies the site has a model plane on top of there sign to commemorate the site.
Yep - Flannery's, otherwise known as the Airplane Diner in Penndel on old US-1. Years ago, I went past it twice a day on the way to and from work. I don't know why, but I never went in the place. They started losing business when new US-1 was built, and the completion of I-95 through the area was all she wrote.
Yep. It's a 35 ft Lighthouse that apparently was constructed specifically for a housing/shopping development. But it definitely caught the eye and I had to pull over to snap it.Quote:

It could be just about any plains state... How about a clue?
Mark
hmmmm.... a clue....
That stone sign in the picture is one of two that mark both ends of this area on an Interstate.
and has a Scenic Byway associated with it.
That would be the Badlands Loop Scenic Byway, near Wall, SD.
Foy
Nope :) Not the Badlands...
Hint: Chert
OK, while I'm uncertain as to whether or not BOTH ends of this route are on an Interstate, I'll say it's a sign marking the Flint Hills Scenic Byway at Cassoday, KS where the Byway intersects I-35 southwest of Emporia, KS.
Thinking the referenced byway was a loop led me to guess the Badlands Loop.
Foy
Wow, that was impressive. Although there are other instances like this on this game!
