US Route decommissioned in Oregon

Just kidding with the subject, but it made you look!  

Back in February I posted that OR 103 has been erroneously posted as US 103.  The wrong shields were still around when I passed through there late summer, but today I noticed they had been corrected.  A couple before-and-afters:







They also fixed the nearby US 202's.

So thus ends the short life of US 103.  We barely knew ya.

Yeah, have never seen that, not in Oregon or even in most states. I'm curious when those first started appearing.
