National Auto Trail
The system of National Auto Trails was an informal network of marked routes that existed in the United States and Canada in the early part of the 20th century. Marked with colored bands on telephone poles, the trails were intended to help travellers in the early days of the automobile.
In 1926, the National Auto Trails were replaced in the United States with the Congressionally-sanctioned system of numbered United States highways. Similar numbering schemes had begun to be implemented in the Canadian provinces as well.
