Along Historic Route 66 in Tulsa, this brick inlay has been added to the sidewalks down 11th Street.
Bedford operates an hourly 99 service to Luton and Airport via the M1, a journey time of just over 2 hours for the round trip means a coach is on layover most of the day at MK Station, former X5 53612/3/5-8 are now allocated to the route, 53618 purchased to replace almost new written off 53614 sits ready for the 16.00 departure.
I love discovering back roads that get me to the same place as the main route, but with more interesting views. It turns out, I-5 isn’t the only path from Woodland to Sacramento. And the alternate route has much better opportunities for photos.

La U.S. 66, también conocida como U.S. Route 66, Route 66 (Ruta 66), The Main Street of America (La calle principal de América), The Mother Road (La carretera madre) y la Will Rogers Highway (Carretera de Will Rogers), formó parte de la Red de Carreteras Federales de Estados Unidos. Una de las rutas federales originales, la U.S. 66 se estableció el 11 de noviembre de 1926, aunque no se señalizó hasta el año siguiente (...). La Ruta 66 fue objeto de muchas mejoras y cambios de trazado, muchos de ellos afectaron bastante a la longitud de la carretera, uno de ellos fue el traslado del final de Los Ángeles a Santa Mónica. Contrariamente a la creencia generalizada, la Ruta 66 nunca llegó al océano; acababa en lo que era el inicio de la U.S. 101, lo que es hoy la intersección de Olympic Boulevard con Lincoln Boulevard. Nunca estuvo en la intersección de Ocean Boulevard con Santa Monica Boulevard, a pesar de que haya una placa dedicatoria de la Ruta 66 como la Will Rogers Highway (Carretera de Will Rogers) allí.
La Ruta 66 fue el principal itinerario de los emigrantes que iban al oeste, especialmente durante las tormentas de polvo de los años 30, y sostuvo la economía de las zonas que la carretera atravesaba. La gente que prosperó durante la creciente popularidad de la carretera fue la misma que años más tarde luchó por mantenerla viva cuando empezó a construirse la nueva Red de Autopistas Interestatales de Estados Unidos.
La U.S. 66 (Ruta 66) fue descatalogada (es decir, oficialmente retirada de la Red de Carreteras de Estados Unidos) el 27 de junio de 1985 después de decidirse que la carretera ya no era relevante y haber sido reemplazada por la Red de Autopistas Interestatales de Estados Unidos. Partes de la carretera que discurre a través de Illinois, Nuevo México y Arizona han sido señalizadas con letreros de "Historic Route 66" (Ruta Histórica 66) y ha vuelto a aparecer en los mapas de carreteras de esta forma.

U.S. Route 66 (also known as the Will Rogers Highway after the humorist, and colloquially known as the "Main Street of America" or the "Mother Road") was a highway within the U.S. Highway System. One of the original U.S. highways, Route 66 was established on November 11, 1926 -- with road signs erected the following year. The highway, which became one of the most famous roads in America, originally ran from Chicago, Illinois, through Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California, before ending at Los Angeles, covering a total of 2,448 miles (3,940 km). It was recognized in popular culture by both a hit song (written by Bobby Troup, originally recorded by the Nat King Cole Trio in 1946, and later performed by such artists as Chuck Berry, The Rolling Stones, The Manhattan Transfer and Depeche Mode) and the Route 66 television show in the 1960s.
Route 66 underwent many improvements and realignments over its lifetime, changing its path and overall length. Many of the realignments gave travelers faster or safer routes, or detoured around city congestion. One realignment moved the western endpoint farther west from downtown Los Angeles to Santa Monica.
Route 66 served as a major path for those who migrated west, especially during the Dust Bowl of the 1930s, and it supported the economies of the communities through which the road passed. People doing business along the route became prosperous due to the growing popularity of the highway, and those same people later fought to keep the highway alive in the face of the growing threat of being bypassed by the new Interstate Highway System.
U.S. 66 was officially removed from the United States Highway System on June 27, 1985 after it was decided the route was no longer relevant and had been replaced by the Interstate Highway System. Portions of the road that passed through Illinois, Missouri, New Mexico, and Arizona have been designated a National Scenic Byway of the name "Historic Route 66". It has begun to return to maps in this form. Some portions of the road in southern California have been redesignated "State Route 66", and others bear "Historic Route 66" signs and relevant historic information.

Oct. 23, 2021: Stop at the California Route 66 Museum in Victorville, California. This museum opened in 1995 in the former 5,000 square foot Red Rooster Cafe building. The exhibits are constantly changed. After closure from Covid-19, the California Route 66 Museum is open Friday thru Sunday. One fun fact: The Red Rooster Cafe was used for filming the 1980 movie, "The Jazz Singer" starring Neil Diamond.

Construction workers clear dirt and rocks out of the creek where the old bridge used to be on Tuesday, Feb. 22, 2011. The new bridge is supposed to be at least two to four feet wider than its predecessor, MoDOT inspectors said. KOMU photo/ Chelsea Myers.
Even more obscure than the 375 is the 347, which operates just four off-peak Monday-Saturday return journeys on a two-hourly frequency between Romford Station and Ockendon Station, just over the border with Thurrock. Operating over several roads that have no other bus service, the route commenced in November 2004 and replaced a mobility bus route.
Since October 2005 the route has been operated by Blue Triangle of Rainham, since acquired by the Go-Ahead Group. Enviro200 SE24, with Go-Ahead fleetnumber but still carrying old-style Blue Triangle fleetname, approaches Romford Station to work the 14.00 departure to Ockendon on Monday 24th June 2013.
A location usually associated with the 60s on the Northwich stone, played host to the Chirk logs today.

Summerhill's AV427 approaches the top of O'Connell Street heading towards Dublin Airport on Route 16.
Although route 280 was a commercially operated town service running entirely in West Sussex, it too was affected by Surrey CC Bus Review phase 2.
It interworked with route 281 (and was actually therefore usually a double decker). Buses arriving at Stone Quarry Estate on the 281 had excessive time to kill as they had to delay the return to Crawley to maintain the combined frequency with the 291 from Tunbridge Wells.
Therefore they looped round various parts of East Grinstead as route 280, never really carrying any passengers.
With the Surrey CC-induced changes to the 409, route 281 was extended from Stone Quarry to Lingfield (to replace the East Grinstead - Worsted Farm - Stone Quarry - Dormansland - Lingfield section of the 409), and therefore the 280 was dropped, without replacement.
Metrobus Scania OmniCity 547 (YN05 HCC) is seen here in High Street heading for Stone Quarry.
The Surrey CC bus review would give this bus a new role, it was one of four allocated to and branded for the 400, a new route as a result of the review.
