Has anyone ever tried to compile a list of even-numbered US routes that are signed north-south, or odd-numbered routes that are signed east-west?
Here's my attempt:
US 1 -- signed E-W in Connecticut
US 4 -- signed N-S in New York
US 24 -- signed N-S in Michigan
US 33 -- signed E-W in Ohio, West Virginia, and Virginia
US 35 -- signed E-W in Ohio
US 42 -- signed N-S in Ohio
US 52 -- signed N-S in several states
US 62 -- signed N-S in New York
US 68 -- signed N-S in Ohio
US 220 -- signed N-S for its entire length
US 250 -- signed N-S in West Virginia
US 258 -- signed N-S for its entire length
US 522 -- signed N-S for its entire length
What have I overlooked?
US 202 varies by state
For historical examples, anyone know if US 66 was signed north-south in Illinois? And US 6 in California?
Ain't US 98 signed North/South in part of Florida?

99% of all East-West signage has been changed to North-South. A couple of stray remnants still exist in the wild.
US 62 is also signed North-South in PA
More...
US 9 is E-W in DE
US 41 is E-W in south FL
US 175
US 178 is N-S in NC
US 218
US 550
US 83 goes E-W when it parallels the Rio Grande in TX.
US 96 goes N-S, and US 57 goes E-W.
I also think US 340 is signed N-S along most of its route.

Correct. US-340 is posted as East/West for the 17-mile stretch in Maryland; the short east/west stretch in Loudoun County, Virginia is posted as North/South consistent with the remainder of the route up-and-down the Shenandoah Valley.

But AFAIK signage is N-S to match the Mexican highway of the same number.

US 66 in Illinois was signed "ST. LOUIS" in the Chicago to St. Louis direction and "CHICAGO" in the St. Louis to Chicago direction.

If I understand correctly, that topic was discussed in this thread (https://www.aaroads.com/forum/index.php?topic=26072.msg2461858#msg2461858).
