East < GO > West

About 4.5 miles west of the Fort Reno Road this unmarked 4 way stop is where you turn north on the 1926 to 1932 alignment that takes you through Calumet & Geary. Even with a 4 way stop this turn is easy to miss. Look for the clump of trees and wide shoulder on the northwest corner of the intersection. There used to be an old Magnolia gas station on the NW corner, but that's gone.

GPS: 35.536845, -98.114211

This intersection is where the 1933 El Reno Cutoff begins. If you go keep going west here the Cutoff takes you about 7 miles to Hwy. 281 and north on 281 about 2.4 miles to where you turn west onto Bridgeport Hill.

x About Us We started traveling Historic U.S. Route 66 as a destination in 2009. It's like a 2,400 mile long drive back in time from Chicago to Santa Monica! more
xDid You Know: Many parts of the old 4 lane Route 66 were reverted to a 2 lane road after 66 was realigned to the interstate. In many places the abandoned lanes are still there.
