We are turning the calendar back and honoring the birth of the Mother Road, Route 66, in 1926. This year marked the middle of the "Roaring Twenties" and "The Jazz Age" and was a time of economic prosperity and social change that followed the end of World War I.

Celebrate the Year of 1926 at the West End Service Station throughout 2026! An exhibit marking the events of the year and the creation of Route 66 will be on display from Jan. 28 through Nov. 11. Take a tour and step back in history.
