I've played it in the thread before, I think, but it's a double match and an opposite directions concurrency so I need to play it again.  North Carolina 194, US 321, and US 421 near Boone.  August 13, 2002.



Business US 1 and Business Georgia 4 in Swainsboro.  July 2, 2006.



Texas 114 and US 281 in Jacksboro.  March 13, 2011.

We should have a big variety of content today. The digit that major Interstates end with, and the digit that the major US routes end with? And many of those major Interstates overlap the original major US routes? Come on!

US 6 shares a lot of pavement with its x1 neighbors, and my options are dominated by those concurrencies.  But, I'll opt for 3 others.
