Description
A sign marks the "End of the Trail" for the historical Route 66 highway at the Santa Monica pier in California. The highway which starts in Chicago, is also known as the "Mother Road". It is one of the original highways in the United States, covering 2448 miles while going through 8 states. Although it was built in 1926, it wasn't fully paved until 1937. In 1985, it was abandoned as a major highway in favor of the interstate highways.
