first transcontinental road in the US. Apparently it was named for
Lincoln cause he saw that having such a road would be a natural next
step to the railroads cross crossing. The road wasn't completed until
1930's I believe. It was eventually changed to Route 30 which still
exists but 30 was largely obsoletes by Route 80.
You can still find Lincoln Highway markers along Route 30 in Wyoming
and Nebraska and other parts.
