New England road marking system
New England Route 26 was a multi-state state highway in the New England region of the United States. It ran from Portland, Maine, north and northwest via Errol, New Hampshire, to Lemington, Vermont. The number was assigned in 1922 as part of the New England Interstate Routes (also known as the Dixville Notch Way), and, other than being extended from U.S. Route 3 into Vermont, the route has changed little since then. The system was disbanded in the 1930s, and Route 26 was replaced by individual state highways, each retaining the original highway number.
Famous quotes containing the words england, interstate and/or route:
“I think that both here and in England there are two schools of thought—those who would be altruistic in regard to the Germans, hoping that by loving kindness to make them Christian again—and those who would adopt a much tougher attitude. Most decidedly I belong to the latter school, for though I am not blood-thirsty, I want the Germans to know that this time at least they have definitely lost the war.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
“At bottom, I mean profoundly at bottom, the FBI has nothing to do with Communism, it has nothing to do with catching criminals, it has nothing to do with the Mafia, the syndicate, it has nothing to do with trust-busting, it has nothing to do with interstate commerce, it has nothing to do with anything but serving as a church for the mediocre. A high church for the true mediocre.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“A Route of Evanescence
With a revolving Wheel—”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)
