History
Between 1918 and 1926, SR 51 went from SR 2 in Elkhart to the Michigan state line, now the route is State Road 19. In 1926, SR 51 was removed from that section of roadway and it was signed as US 112.
There were plans to build SR 51 from State Road 10 to State Road 2, but that route was never built.
