Title: US 271 blog
Post by: bugo on June 04, 2010, 03:02:29 PM
Here's a link to my newest blog.  It's a study of the mysterious original route of US 271 in Arkansas and Oklahoma.  US 71 and 371 make guest appearances.  Here's the link:

The 1926 Rand atlas shows it as US 271/OK 23 and US 271/OK 3.

Does it appear to enter AR along current AR 8 or current US 270?
