Had a US 466 replica made for me a long time ago.  Normally the guy did a good job with the numeral tooling, apparently 3 digits were an issue.

But really I just want to show off my new embossed M-26 and M-35 shields I just got, I'll be back in at 469.

468 is now in play.

My list has a MS 468, but there's no link for it and Flickr search turned up nill. So here are three catchups.

Funny thing was that I didn't remember that I had it until you mentioned it specifically.  Usually I check the next 5 numbers to see if I have something to put into play here.  For some reason I didn't see MS 468 and completely skipped it for I-469 and CO 470.

Count me in as another with MS 468 in the Jackson/Flowood area, from northbound MS 18:

Incidentally Market Street in Center Hill just to the right in your photo has largely been torn down.  I used to love to stop in to check ot the abandoned downtown square of the city.

Moving up to 470 with something a little different; E-470 out of Colorado:

Looking on Street View (From 2011), it appears completely intact but vacant. No tenants.

Here's a more recent version of the E-470 sign, on Peña Blvd:


CR 470 sign on Florida's Turnpike - not sure if black or very dark green:

I guess there was a railroad that used to bisect downtown that would service the stock yard buildings at one point.  Apparently the entire town was almost depopulated during the 1970s kind of like Otter Creek out on US 98. 

Incidentally I had a County Route 469 but didn't realize it:

I have a bunch of 470 photos. Firstly A470 in Wales.



I-470 in Wheeling. I'm amazed I got this as taking a photo to the side traveling at speed usually comes out a lot more blurred. The Eisenhower sign below it is a nice touch.


Yet another Colorado 470, taken from my dashcam.
