Comment from Carnildo
Is it really signed "Sunset Highway" all the way across the state? My experience from driving it was that the "Sunset Highway" signage stopped a bit before Reardan, replaced by generic "SR 2" or "US 2" signs, except where the road picked up a new name while passing through a town.

Comment from Glassman
I'm in the process of updating roads in Lincoln County. The County calls the road State Route 2 except when inside of a city. I'm curious where the name "Sunset Highway" came from?

Comment from Carnildo
My best guess is the name came from a historical map. Back before the era of numbered state and US routes, long-distance routes were named. "Sunset Highway" was the primary Spokane-to-Seattle route.
