Last Spring I drove Lincoln Hwy from Carson Nevada to Utah. I'd read about the history before the drive. My trip took me parallel to Pony Express. Nevada driving is a dream, do it if you can!

Sitting in my recliner, watching this, 3/4 of a mile from Lincoln highway, and one of the last drive in theaters still in operation. Little town in Ohio. Love it here.

@@Pointman-yf6or For years, starting in 1932, there were two Route 30s between Mansfield and Lima. The "old" Lincoln highway and the "new" Lincoln highway. They were called 30N and 30S. Eventually, in 1974, 30S was renamed 309. A few years ago that section was redone and is now all 4 lane highway.

That was an excellent video, thank you for putting it up! It's interesting to read all the comments from others that lived along the Lincoln Highway like I did for about 20 years!

Used to live off the Lincoln Highway. Now I light up when I see the sign for it (granted I’ve only seen the sign in Gettysburg).

My mom and I just drove the Lincoln Highway from Latrobe to Breezewood, PA last week. Along the route we visited the Lincoln Highway Museum, Fort Ligonier, and Flight 93 national memorial. The road is breathtaking with lots of sights to see along the way, even some hairpin turns! They have a Bob Evans in Breezewood built by the Amish with no nails just wooden pegs. I hope whoever reads this will Hit the open road. This is how we can support small town America 🇺🇸 and keep it going.

I am a old guy , I was born in Montana my fathers Mother lived in Alabama , so we were going to drive from Montana to Alabama , now this was in the day before interstates going everywhere . My father was so Happy that it only took three and half days to there , and that was constant driving , one night at a motel. boy things have changed

God Bless all True Patriots we will Prevail !

Some of the roads built by the Romans still exist.

Rt 30 though Pennsylvania, beautiful, for the most part, of course the are less scenic portions.

I did it last week with my mom from Latrobe to Breezewood where we stayed the night before I had to bring her back to Jersey. The scenery was outstanding. It was so enjoyable.

The highway system was needed and wanted unlike electric cars that nobody really needs and few want.

Lincoln way in Ames IA! ISU is on it.

Built in the days when Americans with a good idea were free to bring it to life, without the government interference of over-regulation.

If you want the impossible to be done tell people it can’t be done and people will step up to that challenge.

A lot like the 1,390mi "ALCan" Hwy started in the '40s

Where's the REST of it??

That's not a bull terrier.

Difference being that flying "to Mars" is truly impossible.

Follow the trains was one way to navigate by then. Cross country navigation is no different then maritime navigation. It's easy to find your location with basic (no electricity) tools and a good map. People of that day had attitudes that were much different then today. Not the negative biases of the presenters. Having been raised by parents from the Great Generation. I was raised with the same attitudes of independence and self sufficiency. It was not hard for Engineers to design and build the roads. Humans have been making paved roads for more then 3,000 years. The Romans used concrete as a building material. The problem was marketing cars. One Sales Pitch: Cars would save the environment. In a nation faced with removing millions of tons of Horse Manure from streets daily that was and is still true. The attendant disease, not to mention the smell were a real problem

As I watched this Cornell U. is trying to evict Lincoln from memory.

Maybe you will compromise to the iron fist politics! But I will never ，kneels down to their iron fist politics!

Fox can you stop playing all these videos about American history lol. Your just emphasizing how bad this country has become. It’s like “look how great America used to be. Look how bad it it is now!”
