Title: 1-2-3 Distance Challenge Thread
Post by: peperodriguez2710 on August 06, 2016, 06:16:34 AM
I realized there isn't a thread for this, so let's see how many consecutive distances we can find posted on signs.

Rules:

1. A valid picture is one picture showing a roadsign with one or more distances. Elegible signs are distance signs, distance markers, mileage/kilometer markers... Any signs posting a distance are valid, the only requirement is that they must be roadsigns or milestones showing road distances.

2. Each person will post one contestant photo at a time.

3. In order to avoid conversions between distance units, the order wont be the actual distance, but the number. Because of that; it's possible to post, for example, a picture with a sign marking 3 kilometers (1,86411 miles) after one marking 2 miles (3,21869 km). In other words, you can use any unit you want as long as it's the next number.

4. Decimals and fractions are allowed, and count as actual numbers. So, for example, 0,5 miles (or 1/2 miles, it's the same) can be posted after 0 and before 1.

5. If a sign posts more than one distance, only one will be counted.

6.  When you post a valid sign, you must wait at least 5 more valid pictures before you can post another one.

7. You must credit the author or source of the picture posted if necessary.

8. Google Street View is allowed. You can use links or screenshots, though we prefer the later.

9. If you have a photo taken by yourself in the wild or your photo depicts a rare and historical roadsign or milestone, you can override other pictures. If you override using the second option, it's better to explain why it's historical or rare to justify it and, also, we will learn a bit of road history!

10. As long as the game continues, you're free to talk about stuff you want.

11. If nobody posts a pic in 48 hours, you can ignore the 5 post waiting rule.


After a difficult decision (using this 0 milestone or the very first one, the Miliarium Aureum), I will start with the Kilómetro Cero located in the Puerta del Sol of Madrid since 1950, as part of the Plan Peña. All the distances in the Spanish radial national roads (from N-I to N-VI) are counted from here and has become over time a historical landmark. Picture from Wikipedia user Kaetzar.

Feel free to override me with more historical or singular 0 markers, there are a lot!

I have some questions about the rules.

1. You said that decimals and fractions are allowed. How does this work if we're just doing the next number? Ignore the fractional part?

2. Is an advertising sign saying "McDonald's 300 feet, next right" allowed for 300, or do signs put up by businesses not count?

3. Is there a 24-hour or 48-hour rule?

NY 31B hasn't existed since January 2nd 1980, and I took this picture on November 27th 2007 (thanks EXIF data!).  That means this sign was at least 27 years old when I took the picture. The 7 on the bottom line means that it's .7 miles from the western end, so does this count as an override?

I have some questions about the rules.

1. You said that decimals and fractions are allowed. How does this work if we're just doing the next number? Ignore the fractional part?

2. Is an advertising sign saying "McDonald's 300 feet, next right" allowed for 300, or do signs put up by businesses not count?

3. Is there a 24-hour or 48-hour rule?

1. As fractions and decimal numbers are the same (0.5=1/2), they count as regular numbers. Because of that, if you have a sign telling a direction at 6.5 or 13/2 miles, you can always put it after one showing 6 miles or 6 kilometers; even being a 13 the non-fractional part, because 13/2 is actually 6.5.

2. Only roadsigns or milestones are allowed, not advertising signs. That doesn't mean signs with company logos and that stuff aren't allowed, simply they need to be actual roadsigns placed by the highway department, like for example, the ones telling you which restaurants or gas stations you can find in the next service area.

3. At the moment, there isn't; but I will add it just in case.

I will modify the rules to explain the more confusing points and add that preference.

If I got it right, it would be added after the 0, because it's actually 0.7. Anyway, interesting story, thanks for telling it!

Let's see who comes with the 10...

And, while I was searching for that 66, I found one of the last remaining original N-III milestones at the highway side (km 62). The highway was built over the old national road at that section and most of the old signage was removed, hope it lasts even more decades!

Dang, I hoped to use this lovely milestone (http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/620968) but I misremembered the distance (the railway is 80 miles to Southampton, so I went looking for a picture now we're in the late 70s, knowing that they are still extant at 1, 2 and 3 miles - having walked past them many times, and not bothering to get a picture). Sadly it's 75 miles by road, so this 74 was the highest number on them, so I've missed the boat. :(

It doesn't matter, it's always nice to see sexy old milestones! ;)

Here the 78, from the stretch of the N-340/E-5 in Tarifa, Andalusia.

The 96 is taken from this picture of the Madrid-Valencia road at the beginning of the XX century.
The house where the sign is attached is home of one peón caminero, which were men who, in the past century, lived in houses like that and their job was to keep clean and roadworthy their stretch of road. Time flies!

Photo from the I-71 Highway guide here on AARoads. 88 miles to Louisville, KY on Interstate 71 in Florence, KY.

What is really unusual here is the city that is further away is first on the sign.

That's because this stretch of 71 is multiplexed with 75.   Louisville is the control city for 71 (the lower number, hence listed first); Lexington is the control city for 75.  FWIW, the distance between Louisville and Lexington is about 77 miles.

^^^

But this stretch of road carries I-75's mile markers. I-75 is also dominant in its concurrency with I-64.

In fact, I-64 gets short shrift in every concurrency with higher-numbered N-S routes -- 77, 81, 95.

Just a point of order: this sign used to be located here (https://www.google.com/maps/@40.5666954,-89.002555,3a,41.6y,20.53h,85.94t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s6pEQdlgwO0MBFba0ACrUOQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en) on I-39/US-51 just north of Exit 2 near Hudson. The Interstate/US concurrency signed in the background is what tipped me off that it couldn't be from the Schaumburg to Elgin area on I-90.

Be careful with this Raymond Yu guy.  He likes to photoshop his own vision of road signs onto photographs.  A lot of the pictures in his collection are fakes.

Yeah, I'd heard about this guy and was hesitant, but the picture looked real, so I went with it.  I didn't ground-truth it on GSV, though.  Hopefully it is legit.

You're good, IMO.  Rule #3 of thread:
Quote3. In order to avoid conversions between distance units, the order wont be the actual distance, but the number. Because of that; it's possible to post, for example, a picture with a sign marking 3 kilometers (1,86411 miles) after one marking 2 miles (3,21869 km). In other words, you can use any unit you want as long as it's the next number.

What do you mean? BBC is the British Broadcasting Corporation, and if you meant BBCode, BBCode can't produce non-ASCII characters using formatting. You need Unicode characters, which have nothing to do with the forum software.

298 miles to Seattle on I-90.  Way back to July 28, 1999, just after I crossed into Washington for the first time, bumping my state count to 46.

Now I'm kicking myself for not posting that 298 sign!

Meanwhile, I'll just close out the 200s with this sign that says 299 miles to Las Vegas:

I feel like 300 should be 300 feet/meters, like someone did for 225. Let's change it up a bit.

Thanks to "1" for pointing out that these are not cities.  It looks like "Länge" means "length" so maybe that's a length limit for vehicles?  That seems like an incredibly long vehicle.

Those aren't cities. "Länge" means length, "Höhe" means height, and both are in meters, not kilometers. What does this refer to?

I assume we'll only use exit numbers as a last resort.  Assuming that 374 is good, here's 375 miles to LA on US 395 just south of the Sonora Pass junction.

Two notes:

It would be 401 miles, not 401 km.

More importantly, you should be wary of using Raymond Yu's photos. He's been known to alter photos of legitimate signs, and make it really hard to tell that he's done so. This particular sign photo may be legitimate though.*

* AARoads Nevada page on I-15 has a pic of this sign with distance to SLC as 405 miles. Raymond Yu's photo looks like that same sign has been patched to a 401. Google Maps shows the sign replaced with identical legend and the distance to SLC is now 401. (I recall NDOT's older mileage signs north of Las Vegas did have inconsistent distances, so it's feasible the sign in this photo was patched.)

I'm so used to writing KM that it just kind of slipped in there.  Thanks for the correction.  And regarding Mr. Yue, I always use GSV to verify the signs with his pictures.

Sorry for the late question, but does this mean that there are no further speed limit signs on this road for over 400 miles?  Even if it is 50 throughout, I'd think it would be a good idea to have a speed limit sign at minimum every 5 miles.

Well, if "technically not a road sign" invalidates it, then try this one.

451 miles to Ulster (province on Ireland, I assume)

489 km to Pirmasens.   https://goo.gl/maps/kSSEvks2u39VLFMc9
I found this sign very odd. It does seem to be a street sign, and the mileage to Pirmasens Germany is more or less correct. But the location of it is very strange. Basically in the middle of a city, with a distance sign to a seemingly unrelated city. Upon further research, it appears that Pirmasens is a twinned (i.e. sister city) of Poissy, where this sign is found.
