Dang, I was gonna use US 84-285!

Fortunately, I have other choices.  I-84 and US 395, Pendleton, OR:

Dang, I was gonna use US 84-285!

I thought someone else might go for that one. The US54/285 photo more than makes up for that, because I haven't seen that one before. I should have gone with something more obscure, perhaps--I think 4/5 is a pretty easy set of digits to work with.

I-84 and I-15 just before the end of their duplex near Tremonton, UT: (image)

Technically this sign doesn't imply the existence of a concurrency, but I don't think anyone is going to argue against the fact that I-15 and I-84 share pavement in northern Utah. This photo should shut down any arguments.

Technically this sign doesn't imply the existence of a concurrency,

I removed it.

Here's a replacement for it that I passed over before because of blurriness -- US 64 and I-25 south of Raton, NM:



I do have an AI-unblurred version, but figured it's best to go with the honest shot.  I would've pulled over and gotten a clearer picture, but I was rushing to get to Capulin Volcano Nat'l Monument before it closed.

Actually, I was surprised US 54 went that far north and east. I figured that it was an error to IL 54...
