In 1938, Wyoming 514 was the current Wyoming 24 from U.S. 14 at Devils Tower Junction north to the national monument and the town of Hulett. This designation lasted from 1938 until 1961, when the road was recommissioned as Wyoming 24.

520
Between 1936 and 1939, the current mainline section of U.S. 14 between Greybull and Burgess Junction was known as Wyoming 520. Prior to 1936, this segment was called Wyoming 416. At that time, the current Alternate U.S. 14 was known as U.S. 14 in those days. Wyoming 520 was decommissioned in 1939 when mainline U.S. 14 was rerouted via Greybull, and its old routing became Wyoming 14 by 1940.

530
From Business Loop I-80 and U.S. 30 (Flaming Gorge Way) in Green River south to the Utah-Wyoming State Line near Manila, Utah, along the west side of the Flaming Gorge Reservoir. Wyoming 530 is a good scenic road, paralleling Flaming Gorge Reservoir. The reservoir is famous for its fishing, especially bass fishing, and has one of the largest shorelines in the state. It is the result of the Green River being dammed up near Dutch John, Utah. Near that dam is some very impressive geological and scenic sites to behold, including Sheep Creek Canyon. The Wyoming Highway Department has invested a significant amount of time and money into improving it from Green River south to the border near Manila, Utah. The improved sections of Wyoming 530 have widened shoulders and more passing lanes but is usually two lanes (except in the city limits of Green River). This project is completed as far south as Milepost 20 (the milepost numbers increase as you head south out of Green River), but it still underway between Mileposts 20 and 30. A good alternate route to Wyoming 530 is Sweetwater County Route 1, which runs from Wyoming 414/Utah 43 north to Wyoming 530 at an angle. It is a well-maintained county road even if it appears unimproved on most maps. In Green River, Wyoming 530 is five-lane Uinta Avenue (two lanes each way plus a middle turn lane). In 1996, the Wyoming 530 bridge over the Union Pacific Railroad yards was widened from two lanes to four lanes.

585
From U.S. 85 at Four Corners northwest to Interstate 90 at Sundance. Wyoming 585 first appeared in 1933 and has maintained its original alignment since that time. At that time, U.S. 85 had four U.S. auxiliary routes: U.S. 185, U.S. 285, U.S. 385, and U.S. 485. Planners probably hoped to make Wyoming 585 into a U.S. 585, but that never happened. DeLorme's 1992 Wyoming Atlas and Gazetteer mistakenly refer to Wyoming 585 as U.S. 585. It never was a U.S. route, not even when U.S. routes as short as 28 miles long were common (see U.S. 116, 320, 420, etc.).
