They should color it brown, and call it a historical site.

Someone tell NYSDOT that if they want to leave the sign up, they have the power to bring back OnTrack too. We need more revived passenger rail lines.

On our next episode of Texas Doing Strange Things with Arrow Placards, how about some orange ones?



These shields were also pretty massive.

A shield over a shield.
The newer shield has CALIFORNIA above the number; the old one doesn't. That's crucial information for the millions of travelers on that road.

Every day is a winding road, you just got to get used to it.

Caltrans never even studied it.  The political points someone gained by suggesting a study have figuratively expired.
