Massachusetts Turnpike Questions

Ian:
Hey All!

I have some questions I have on the Mass Pike.

1) I hear they are removing the toll booths except at the I-84 exit, the NY/MA state line, and any west of I-95/MA 128. Does this mean they are going to remove any of the Turnpike signs with the pilgrim hat on them?

2) This requards back to the old old Mass Pike logo with the pilgrim hat with the arrow running through the middle. Does anyone know if there are any left in exsistance in the wild? If so, I'd like to go find it and take a shot of it.

Thanks!
Ian

To answer number 2, I think there are some still around, most likely on old BGS's.  There might be a couple on the shield assemblies, but I don't know exactly.

No, none left with the arrow in the hat.  Last one in Springfield is gone.

Far from decided that's what's going to happen.  Patrick wants to but it's not signed yet.  I would think because Masspike runs the whole thing that you'd still see your pilgrim hats.  The little green trailblazers will continue to exist wherever they do, as no one ever gets around to taking them down.

would be nice to randomly find one.  I did find that 18" wood I-495 a few years back after they were all thought to be gone!
