It will be nestled on the right hand side of US 340 situated in such a way heavy braking is required to get he speed off her. If they ARE, Keep a eye out when you hit a set of S curved twisties. I think there is a major light at that intersection now and MAYBE a small diner on a couple acres at Rippion WVa if they are still open. Turn right onto WVa Route 7 for Winchester. Take US 340/US 15 west Your objective in this beautiful mountain land is to cross Harpers Ferry WVA and climb that big ridge to Charlestown. If anyone is going to screw up somewhere it's going to be here. You need to be on this ramp where you see that flatbed in front of you far to the right. Link to real world google map image of this exit. It WILL flow into 11 west without any action on your part.Įxit 5B. And your right side has a ginormous Navy Base Joint on your west. The reason is you are skirting Mechanicsburg which has signs trapping and banning you for which you stand to be arrested locally and held for a judge to hear your excuse sometime. GO with the flow and MAKE SURE do not take any exits on that 581, like Exit three or any other exits ESPECIALLY. as long you see those letters and numbers PA 581 you are good going south. They call it the capital beltway, harrisburg expressway, highway 581. Hop on that big ramp and run PA 581 south. Go EAST on I-81 until you know that you see PA-581 south. You follow US22 on the other side of the big river until I-81 at harrisburg. There are plenty of places you can stick a big truck legally on the route I am giving you without all that heavy mountain crap on the old map route.ĮVENTUALLY you will see US 22 just BEFORE you reach Duncannon PA (And more importantly the Junitia River, you don't take a 53 foot past that bridge because you are now going to Marysville PA which is TOTALLY no room for you and your enormous obnoxious 53 foot 110 inches wide tractor trailer at 75 feet long. MAKE SURE YOU ARE LEGAL in weight, ELD Hours etc. I usually stayed on 147 until the Shamokin Dam below that spot in several large towns with the associated traffic etc. Trust me is WAY easier for you to do this. Its going to be the first interchange on the west bank of the river. Just long enough to get across the river. You rock and roll first east then curve south to follow the river on your right dead south at high speed on flat ground. Combined with Williamsbort Rush, you don't need that hassle. (Now US 15 leaves you and crossed the river in your face, you ask me why don't I go that way still? because there is a one hell of a mountain south of williamsport and a nice professional platform scale house on the other side of it. it is ACTUALLY old US 15 probably rebuilt to interstate code)Īt williamsport you go east on I-180. With these thoughts in mind, run the NY Turnpike east until you hit 390.ģ90 until Painted Post (NY State, I-99 interchange. Go under the interstate and roll on US 220.

Follow that going west or south as the signs go until you hit I-80 (You are east of Milesburg-Snowshow at this time in this winter storm that's VERY useful information because big mountains start where you are at there)įollow I-80 West until about 161 there is a ramp that will put you onto US 220 provided you turn left at the end of it. You will find US 220 a divided valley highway all the way to pittsburgh more or less. Just dead south by the river at a city called Williamsport. In PA you will see 99 turn into US 15 don't have to do anything. I-390 south to Painted Post NY which is juction for I-99 (OLD US15, a wonderful wonderful trucking road) If it was me? Straight east on 20 from Buffalo or pay a few dollars toll until Batava Route 63 I think runs SE until I-390 You kind of don't want to go all the way to R'cster to grab that road, Rush will be stiff when you get over there today)
