Title: Route Ends with Three Characters
Post by: NE2 on November 02, 2012, 09:49:21 PM
West end of SR 536: http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&ll=28.363421,-81.529498&spn=0.01722,0.033023&gl=us&t=m&z=16&layer=c&cbll=28.363479,-81.529652&panoid=nA8blwZiARhqFd9V__ppMg&cbp=12,293.98,,0,1.93

Every time I see these threads pop up (like toadstools in the yard), my first thought is of alphabetical characters.  So, a route end with three characters would be some crazy thing like 17A, 3A, and 202B–or simply 6ABC.

After what, three threads? you'd think I'd figure it out by now....

Have you been eating those toadstools?

And here I thought you meant this one (https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Osr,+Midway,+Texas+75852&hl=en&ll=31.024952,-95.752416&spn=0.008422,0.038753&sll=37.6,-95.665&sspn=34.868931,79.365234&geocode=Fb8w2gEdiGlJ-g&hnear=Osr,+Midway,+Texas+75852&t=m&z=15&layer=c&cbll=31.024958,-95.752412&panoid=pdBPJQDHONQYyHiS0jiyew&cbp=12,319.93,,0,3.19).

Ah, but numbers -- and punctuation marks for that matter -- are characters as well.

Yes!  Well, then, my contribution is the western terminus of US 160 in northern Arizona.  1-6-0: three characters.   :)

That's a good one NE 2. 

Unless you want to count three people who piss you off on the road where the route ends, that can happen a lot these days.  They are definetly characters.
