message: To re-align route 176, we removed a Blue Star sign mid-1972 from the southern intersection infield of routes 47 and 176 east of Marengo.  As far as I know it was never relocated. --Robertkeller 18:39, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Currently, the only sources are on the list of highways.  However, the body of this article is small and unsourced.  The North Carolina link looks like it might be a place to go for information for the body of the article.  The list, I believe, is a distraction, and the article might do well to dispense with it.

replies: text: I took some of the southbound North Carolina Welcome Center last year, but more recently I got some at US 6 in front of Brewster (Metro-North station). ---------User:DanTD (talk)  02:10, 17 July 2016 (UTC)

message: I know there are markers off I-95, but I'm not sure which routes are designated. http://www.kennebecvalleygardenclub.org/blue-star-highway-markers/ states that Route 1 is, but I know of a sign on Wilson St. in Brewer (1A, maybe?). http://barharborgardenclub.com/?p=6068 lists a marker on Rte. 3. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 17:16, 15 December 2017 (UTC)

message: If you remove the current List section, there's not much here. There are available sources to expand this article but should the list be split from here?
Some available sourcing:     
It looks like grabbing the relevant state's DOT page at least gives understanding how it's adopted through the state's Legislature. My focus on the sourcing is more about the program summarized for each state versus trying to maintain some kind of running list. – The Grid (talk)  15:26, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
