usaush: United States Historic US Routes

For future checking: US 6 in Palmdale (not on Sierra Highway): https://www.aaroads.com/forum/index.php?topic=27290

Look at any of your base maps for Council Bluffs, Iowa. Iowa 192 used to run through the heart of Council Bluff (as a N-S arterial) and whomever set up the routing for Historic US 6, had the western extent end at (the now former) routing of Iowa 192.
Yes, there is no Iowa 192 signed in Council Bluff. I don't recall seeing any signs for that road when I was in Council Bluff/Omaha, last year (doing Lincoln Hwy traveling).

It died in the great 2016-ish Council Bluffs decommissioning where Iowa turned over the state-maintained roads in city limits to the city.

Historic US 10 is signed in George, Washington.

Field checking of old US 20 which has been moderately signed recently.  Signage is not thorough as I would expect.  Highway63 might have a history though.  Dubuque has signs on University (but ambiguity exists by JFKennedy, Loras Blvd and Locust St (But not Bluff St (one-way opp Locust) which make sense if Locust was 2-way back then.  Got all the way to Dyersville before being cut off by construction.

IL US66HisWil
This is signed with an actual Spur banner. So it makes sense to put it in the Banner field in the CSV (which does allow 6-character double banners) rather than dumping it into the City field.

usaush;IL;US66;His;Wil;(Spur) Williamsville;il.us066hissprwil;
->
usaush;IL;US66;HisSpr;Wil;Williamsville;il.us066hissprwil;
so the "adjective(s)" on the right modify the "nouns" on the left, and the .list name matches the root, can you dig it.

Or, if you don't want to break list files even though this system is in preview,
usaush;IL;US66;HisSpr;Wil;Williamsville;il.us066hissprwil;US66HisWil


US66HisChi, in the same neighborhood
IL123 doesn't even mark the end of a multiplex; IL123 just ends there while concurrent. Better off naming it after something else.
IL123 -> US66HisSpr_W
US66HisSpr -> US66HisSpr_E


IL US66HisCha
Same deal as US66HisCha

usaush;IL;US66;His;Cha;(Spur) Chain of Rocks;il.us066hissprcha;
->
usaush;IL;US66;HisSpr;Cha;Chain of Rocks;il.us066hissprcha;
Or,
usaush;IL;US66;HisSpr;Cha;Chain of Rocks;il.us066hissprcha;US66HisCha


Systemwide:
There should probably be state abbreviations in the city fields. Only 2 routes have them.

CA US40HisAub:
What's up with that weird self-intersecting loop at the S end? I see historic signs on Lincoln Way, but not Maple St.
Up north, I see a sign heading sough from CA49_N but nothing north of there.

I thought that usaush was going to be scrapped.

I would love that, in fact...

CA US40HisSac is not itself an exit-numbered route.
46A(CA160) -> CA160(46A)
46B(CA160) -> CA160(46B)

Made it to Waterloo on a different trip about a week later.  Beyond Delaware County, Buchanan only had one or two small signs and I saw zero signs in Black Hawk County.  Highway63 certainly has the log, but given the rule of unsigned I'd be only willing to enter Delaware and Dubuque Counties (Maybe Buchanan).  Given the attention to US6 in Iowa, I think this is an emerging project that will continue as time progresses and funding is found.

There is one Historic US 20 sign on US 18/20 WB just west of Lusk, WY (GMSV. There isn't any corresponding signage on the EB side, and I've only seen the one sign. Since this is signed just about as well as US 6 Historic in Gretna NE, I think it should be in, but I don't know where it should be cut off on either end. Thoughts?

I would too. Or at least, put it on a shelf to be revisited once we have the ability for users to toggle systems on and off in their stats.

I think it belongs with *cough* usanyt.

Count me in favor of scrapping usaush as well. Since they show up on the mapview, I try to drive these routes when I can. They are probably at or near the bottom of my priorities when in an area.
