Looks like Oscar has been creeping on my turf! (Pics from I-64 and I-79).

In the one pic that you took approaching the US 219/WV 72 split north of Parsons, is that a US 48 marker I spy atop the US 219 sign right at the intersection in the background of the photo?

I'm guessing you went up I-79 to Exit 99 and then took Corridor H east, judging from some of your photos. Is US 48 posted on the I-79 exit signage now too?


Government would be tolerable if not for politicians and bureaucrats.

Yes, on my way back home from last weekend's Mississippi meet, including the Pennyrile, Western Kentucky, and Bluegrass parkways. Indeed, several of my photos turned out to be of signs you already posted in this thread.

US 48 signs are posted at I-79 and many other places west of Davis, including at the WV 32/WV 93/US 48 junction, though I don't recall specifics of the intersection you mention.

I presume that's approaching US 23 somewhere, but where? That's an old KYTC installation, so I'm guessing on a state route.
