Trail of Tears:

begins on US 76 in Ellijay GA
both ways on old US 411:
going north on old US 411, staying with US 76 but crossing US 411 to SR 225 ("Roundup Route"). The roundup route goes south to end at Craigtown Road, and north to where? It seems that signs disappear in favor of Georgia's Old Federal Road.
going south on old US 411, I can't find any more signs.

More to come?

Visiting the area and signs were posted to turn off where I did to get to the route not realizing I was shortchanging myself there. I'll be back in that area this week so hoping I'll have some time to finish it up. :)

R36:
+X182047 and +X110221: Both could be replaced by a single visible point at this road signed for Daviesville.
D3180: Where did you get this number from? OSM says this is D447, but there isn’t a number signed at the intersection. The road is signed for Modjadji.
Mod: Should be ChaMabSt.
R36 does not enter downtown Tzaneen. Southbound, it’s signed turning right onto Circle Drive just past D523. Northbound, it’s signed turning left onto Claude Wheatley Street.
StiSt: Should be D2283.
+X256558: Could be replaced by a visible point at D1714.
Dan: Should be D673.
Sas: Should be D3763.
Ram: Should be D4062.
Bis: Should be D3900.
Mora: Should be D3387.
Tha: This point is not at an intersection. It should be moved here.
Tsw: This point is south of all the intersections in Tswenyane.
Missing a point at R555 between R532 and Ohr.
+X509290: Could be replaced by a visible point at this road signed for Bosoord.
Geo: Should be Goe. (This also needs to be changed on the N4Sch point.)
R541: This intersection has been converted to an overpass with no access between the two roads.
N4_W: This intersection has been removed, and a new interchange has been built a bit to the west.
MalSt: This is the new western terminus of R541. R541 is signed east from here and west from the intersection of Molen Street and Potgieter Street.
R517_E: Should be R517. See below.
R517_W: It seems R542 has been extended along what OSM labels as R517 between N11 and Breyten. There are no signs at R36, but the road is signed as R542 at N11. (N11’s point will also need to be changed to either R542 or R542_E, depending on whether we add a second R542 or consider it an unsigned concurrency with R38 and N11 through Hendrina.)
R37:
Leb: Should maybe be R518. OSM and Wikipedia place the western terminus of R518 here. The RDDA places it at R579, but it is signed eastbound from R579.
There’s a 57.72-mile stretch without any visible points through a pretty densely populated area between Leb and DerGel. You could put a point at D4169. I think this stretch deserves multiple new visible points, but I did not find any other roads signed with a road name or number.
R555: Should be R555_W.
Leg: Should be R555.
+X658532: Could be replaced by a visible point at this road signed for Beetgekraal.
Hen: Should be D421/D729.
I think we have the wrong southern terminus for R37. All the signs at ToR40 say that R37 turns toward R40, not R104. Wikipedia says R37 ends at R40, but the RDDA has the route we currently have in TM.
R38:
You could break up a 26.77-mile stretch with no visible points between R39 and Mil by adding one at D516.
BetEast: This point is not at an intersection. It should be moved one block south and renamed HolSt_S.
R542: R542 has seemingly been extended to Breyten. If we consider it an unsigned concurrency with R38 and N11 through Hendrina, then this will need to be changed to R542_W.
+X925408: Could be replaced by a visible point at this road signed for Leliefontein.
+X644005: Could be replaced by a visible point at this road signed for Jessievale.
+X792548: Could be replaced by a visible point at this road signed for Grootkop.
GenSt: Should be P10.
+X915931: Could be replaced by a visible point at this road in and signed for Low’s Creek.
R39:
+X686291: Could be replaced by a visible point a ways to the east at this road previously signed for Nelspan.
R40:
Pha: Should be MicaRd.
SerRd: There is not an intersection here.
D4419: This road is signed with two different names (but no D number) at the same intersection: “Tulamahashe Road” and “Rd to Acornhoek.”
Tsa: This point is placed between two intersections, and it’s not clear with which it supposed to be associated.
+X972259: Could be replaced with a visible point at this road previously signed for Mokhululine.
ArtSto: Should be MainRd.
+X997628: Could be replaced with a visible point at this road signed for Graskop.
NumPark: Should be Num. “Numbipark” is one word.
+X673056: Could be replaced with a visible point at this road signed for Kiepersol.
+X539466: Could be replaced with a visible point at this road signed for Spitskop.
+X602990: Could be replaced with a visible point at this road signed for Swartfontein.
ToR37: I think we have the wrong southern terminus for R37. All the signs at ToR40 say that R37 turns toward R40, not R104. Wikipedia says R37 ends at R40, but the RDDA has the route we currently have in TM.
GenSt: Should be P10.

https://www.nps.gov/orgs/1453/road-signs.htm lists all the trails:
California Trail
El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro
El Camino Real de los Tejas
Mormon Pioneer
Old Spanish Trail
Oregon Trail
Pony Express
Santa Fe Trail
Trail of Tears
https://www.nps.gov/orgs/1453/index.htm also includes Butterfield Overland and Route 66.
35
Utah: California Trail, Mormon Pioneer, and Pony Express use old US 30 thru Echo, SR 65, presumably all the way to I-80 (unless they use Emigration Canyon Road?)
36
Wyoming also signs them, but I haven't looked in detail yet.
I'm partway through WY, and struggling to work out Idaho, so perhaps look at Nebraska or Nevada instead?

I was unable to find anything in Nebraska with a quick search.

California Trail in Nevada (shared with Pony Express west of Fallon):
SR 88 north to SR 206 north to US 395 north thru downtown Carson City (but also US 50 west of US 395) to US 50 east to US 95 north, then presumably east on I-80 but I can't find any more signs until West Wendover (including onto I-80 east).

https://www.nps.gov/cali/planyourvisit/tour-route-nevada.htm claims the Pony Express simply uses US 50 and US 93/93 Alt east of Fallon, but I can't find any signs.

Pony Express also has a local tour route on SR 207 to end at US 50.
