Texas’s forgotten “Route 66” – travel the crumbling Bankhead Highway, a 1919 coast‑to‑coast road once hailed as the “Broadway of America.” Walk past shuttered motor courts, rusted neon, and century‑old bridges that still span dusty Texas creeks. (Originally aired 2013 on Texas Country Reporter)
About the story:
Before interstates and GPS, the Bankhead Highway guided Model‑T tourists from Washington D.C. to San Diego. In Texas it threaded through Texarkana, Dallas, Weatherford, Abilene, Midland, and El Paso, boosting diner counters, cotton gins, and auto courts that now sit in silent prairie grass. Host Bob Phillips uncovers the people fighting to save what’s left.
