Major intersections

FYI, I have blanked the major intersections section as what was there was so blatantly wrong it was laughable. See these maps [1][2], one is a 1989 map, a full 25 years after US-66 was decommissioned in California. It shows I-15 still not completed through the inland empire (I-15 was literally the last of the original interstate highways to be completed in California). Therefore any mention of US-66 intersecting I-15 in Rancho Cucamonga (heck, the city didn't even exist until 1977) should be deleted on the spot. Dave (talk) 17:52, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That leaves this article as somewhat of a stub, as it lacks both a junction/mileage table and a list of structures or landmarks. At some point, we do need the actual information in terms of crossroads (even if you take just US Highways as jct entries) and distances to the main towns on the road. Many of these state-level entries need work (CA NM MO IL need junction tables, CA NM list no landmarks on the road) but in adding clearly missing info and not just removing things. 66.102.83.61 (talk) 18:24, 14 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
