History
The West Virginia portion of the Bloomery Pike, WV 29 from U.S. Route 50 near Pleasant Dale to WV 127 in Forks of Cacapon as well as WV 127 from WV 29 to the state line, was once designated West Virginia Route 45. This explains why all Hampshire County secondary routes off WV 29 and WV 127 have 45 as their numerator.
