U.S. Route 66

U.S. Route 66 (also known as the Will Rogers Highway or the Main Street of America), was a famous highway that stretched 2,448 miles (3,940 kilometers), located in California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, and [[Illinois. The highway began at US 41/54 in Chicago, Illinois, and ended at Santa Monica, California at US 101 Alternate. The highway was modified so many times during its lifespan that the cost of refurbishing the highway far outnumbered tourism revenue, and it was removed from the highway list on June 27, 1985, having served 58 years, 7 months of service.
