If it wasn't for the mystique of Route 66, most of these towns would all be 
almost ghost towns, bypassed by highway 40.  Thee are still some major 
cities along the route, but the small towns exist at the whim of tourists as 
they try to trace the route on their adventures.

Thanks for looking.

Interesting slice, Aram. Like the Fountain Service one best. Life looks
tough and probably is once you've been bypassed. I'd reckon Ike didn't get
many votes there.
