Tank Farm Loop cruise April 4, 2011

Here’s a video I shot of the historic Tank Farm Loop of Route 66, east of Bristow, Okla.

It served as Route 66 from 1926 to 1938, when it was bypassed. It now serves as a quiet country road for farms and residences. Tank Farm Loop is so named because of the oil tanks that are still sprinkled along its 1.7 miles.

The Tank Farm Loop of Route 66 is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. A map to Tank Farm Loop can be found here.

I recognize Bobby McGee.

I like that loop, too.
