The AmericaJR Web Team recently visited historic Route 66 in Kingman, Arizona. The historic road’s role in American history is celebrated at the Route 66 Museum, set inside the Powerhouse Visitors Center. Murals, dioramas and a library at the Mohave Museum of History and Arts trace local history. Locomotive Park, featuring a 1928 steam engine, and the Kingman Railroad Museum document the city’s past as a 20th-century railway hub. You’ll also see Mr D’z Route 66 Diner, a Vintage Americana restaurant serving fare such as root beer floats and burgers.
