Wonder how if any Ghost Towns there are along that route now

Hello Doug....!
Many Thanks!....

There are loads of beauty spots dotted all along the 2,500 miles of Route 66, from Chicago to Los Angeles.
Historic Route 66 is a magic highway frequented by loads of visitors every year.
I regularly watch the whole of it, in the "Travel Channel" series; "Worlds Greatest Motorcycle Rides", ridden by Henry Cole on his Saxon Chopper Motorcycle!
There are some truly fascinating places along the route, particularly, for me, between Albuquerque and Barstow, a journey I would dearly love to travel on my Motorcycle!
I spend many hours in both the Flight Sim, and watching the Motorcycle "Eagle Riders" on You-Tube, travelling the route!

I love exploring the amazing USA scenery...been doing it, every day, for the past 17 years now..... every place a surprise!
I've done the whole of Route 66 on my Flight Sim Beech Baron 58, many years ago, and recorded the journey in the FS 2004 Flight Sim!
