About US 33: | US 33 goes generally northwest-southeast in its trip through Indiana, although its numbering is of a north-south route. Originally it ran through to St. Joseph, Michigan (and even a bit beyond) cosigned with US 31, then as US 31 was transfered to expressway routes US 33 stayed signed over the original street routing. In 1998 it was truncated to Dunlap, on the outskirts of the Elkhart area. | |||

Northwest Terminus/Entrypoint: | ||||
| Present Terminus: US 20 just outside Dunlap | ||||
 | This is looking up Main Street just northwest of Downtown Dunlap. Beyond the grassy area of the picture is a set of Railroad tracks, then C.R. 45. Photo by Tom Weinkauf; up Feb 28, 2003. | |||
 | Same endpoint, only a different view, starting from near the US-20 overpass. Notice the second "end 33" sign off to the distance, a little hard to read but definitely there. Photos by Daniel Garnell; up March 6, 2003. | |||
 | Back in the early twenties, C.R. 45 southeast of Elkhart was also known as Lincoln Highway. This is a copy of a postcard showing the old iron bridge (now long replaced) crossing the Yellow River under what could be considered heavy traffic conditions at that time. Notice the handmade signs to the right bottom of the picture. | |||
