Abandoned

This is a piece of Route 66 in central Illinois. It is parallel to Interstate 55, except the Interstate bypasses all of the towns and cities, while Route 66 goes through the heart of each city. This stretch was abandoned as I-55 was built over 40 years ago. Over the next 40 years Mother Nature will crumble it further with only memories left of what John Steinbeck called, "The Mother Road."
