Route 66 was a mostly two lane highway that extended from Chicago to Los Angeles, through Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California, before gradually giving up to the modern interstate. Most of the old pavement is still there, and can be followed with the right maps and directions. I drove the entire length of old 66 in 2012, and invite you to follow along!

Illinois Route 66 - Springfield
SPRINGFIELD, ILLINOIS. A neon sign and a
modest L shaped motel facility - pretty much what you would have seen
had you pulled up to the Pioneer Motel in the 1940's.
