I just discovered I had been mentioned (named and shamed, actually) in an odd message from @204.48.31.214 upbraiding me for not congratulating you on "having M-35 named after [you]". I can't find anything in the article history suggesting this. Could you explain what's going on? (Congratulations if it's true.) Auric talk 21:11, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

I've been trying to find out the change of the northern terminus of US-127 in Lansing for some time, but have never been able to find a definitive answer, and MichiganHighways.org is the source of the confusion. The site mentions that it was first at Kalamazoo and what would eventually become Larch before it was rerouted over a reconfigured Cedar at Kalamazoo (1930). But by 1950, the entry on the website mentions that US-127 and a rerouted US-27 now "runs concurrently with its own parent route (US-27) for even longer than it had in the past—1½ miles." This would seem to imply that US-127's northern terminus was extended northward sometime before then. Can you find anything on when US-127 was extended northward to run concurrently run with US-127?

Criticalthinker: I read that as indicating that US 27 was shifted such that it joined with US 127 at a new location south of its old merger point, meaning the two overlapped a longer distance to US 127's terminal point at US 16. That's what the Lansing insets at the maps around that time period appear to show. They don't conclusively indicate that US 127 was route to US 16, but they do show that US 27/M-78 did shift to intersect US 127 at a more southerly location at Main & Cedar instead of Kalamazoo & Cedar.

- I'm still confused. On Michigan Highways, we are told that US-127 ends Cedar/Larch & Kalamazoo. As such, it wouldn't ever run concurrently/overlap with US-27...until whenever it must have been extended north. That's what I'm asking about. The 1950 entry reads "extended northward for even longer than it had in the past." So when was the terminus of US-127 moved northward? Criticalthinker ( talk) 10:04, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
Hey, I just wanted to say thanks for what you've done to help me expand the article. I'm still learning (as you can probably tell) and I forgot to publish a change last night, so there was quite a merge conflict today. Sorry for anything I may have overwritten and please feel free to make any necessary changes. Thanks again! NotDragonius ( talk) 20:52, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
