This YouTube channel has been uploading scanned VHS tapes from WSDOT's old 1980s and 1990s video logs: https://www.youtube.com/@highwayvideos3434

Quite entertaining to see the roads I drive down today as they were before I was born. And yes, the gas prices were ridiculous compared to today's.

The CHPW volumes from 1924-67 would occasionally insert stuff from route photo logs.
