"Where in North America is this?" Section XII

[Southwest Dave]

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.

Bear Lake, Utah :D

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.

Where is this? (edited the name out of the sign)

It could be just about any plains state... How about a clue?

[Pfemm]

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.

[Pfemm]

Nope :) Not the Badlands...

Hint: Chert

[Foy]

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.

Wow, that was impressive. Although there are other instances like this on this game!
