- Route 66 - When it comes to new Mexico, Tucumcari has got a LOT of Route 66 punch for such a small town! And now we get to explore the Tucumcari Historical Museum and the old Tucumcari Downtown (later bypassed by 66, which was later bypassed by the I-40)
This is the continuing exploration of Tucumcari, theres a lot more here • Is this the most EPIC ...
Thanks for watching! If you liked it, Please share with someone else you think would enjoy it. :)

My friends' amazing restored motel in Tucumcari! www.roadrunner...
Thanks for watching, seriously !
So good man ! I don't know the reasoning but i realize I pronounce every Route 66 town incorrectly after watching your videos
Join US shall YOU ? Hi Adam The WOO!!!!
Woah! An authentic Old West fighter jet! Just like the cowboys rode.
I CAN’T BELIEVE IT!!! I was just there a couple days ago! I visited that abandoned motel and the tee pee thing!
Thank goodness this popped up. Too much bad news and bs was starting to bring me down! Love you Justin!!!!!
My grandmother grew up in Tucumcari. I showed her this video and she said that she went to school in the building that now houses the historical museum. Her father was a manager at the Crescent Creamery in town, too. She was pretty excited to see the creamery showcased in the museum and mentioned in the video. She loved seeing the refurbished train depot too. She has strong memories of riding the train from Tucumcari to Oklahoma City.
Thanks Justin!
Such a funny, informative and positive way to start the day!
Actually Justin the Iron Lung known more now as a hyperbaric chamber. And many many hospitals still have them. They use them to treat a bad case of The Bends from Scuba Diving injuries and such. And for pain relief from rare neurological conditions. Hope this helps. Loving the channel. Cheers.
I could stare at that Neon for FOREVER...
"Who hasn't fired a few torpedoes from their caboose?" I had to stop the video I laughed so hard.
Ah, good ole outhouse humor. I will never tire of it. I just wanted to say that I started watching you a couple weeks ago, and I love your work!
In this world of relentless negativity, Randomland stands out as an oasis of goodness. Justin takes us on adventures, respectfully sharing his joys and passions, acting goofy and making us laugh. He is a cool breeze on a hot day. May his caboose be forever on the loose!
That's a F-100F Super Saber, the F was the 2 seater training model of the Super Saber, so fitting its the trainer when the lady said there was a training field there in WWII. Really cool to see one in a random place like that, but it could use some TLC.
Good job showing the side areas rather than just the main drags. Makes me want to travel more and more!
History and neon... two of my favorite words!
Really enjoy your Route 66 videos. Im glad you are still doing them. Im from Ontario Canada, and we travelled Route 66 from St Louis to California last winter. Ive watched all your videos on Route 66. We stayed for the night at an RV park in Tucumcari, and ate supper at the Dels. Unfortunately, the Blue Swallow was not lit up that night. Keep up the great job. Thumbs up from Canada.
I don't often laugh out loud watching videos, but this one cracked me up!
Nice vid. After many of these towns incorporated or were bypassed by a larger highway, it destroyed that kitchy vibe of these neat places. I feel lucky that I saw many of them still in business when I was a little kid in the 60's.
If you ever go through Needles, CA, see if they have a museum that has a picture of the wood bridge over the river. It was one lane and we drove over it one car at a time.
Justins vids are like MCU movies, ALWAYS stay until the very end ;)
Best tour guide by far, you *Sir* are a hidden gem
HOW! I say, HOW! Do you remember ALLLL that information?? You seem to know SOO much about all these wonderful places you go…it’s an enormous effort 💪🏼

Alfred Packer MUST of been really Hungry 2nd to eggs (the other white meat) ewww. i like that part @ 5:00 "take a rest in the chair, make a couple of phone calls, watch some tv, listen to the Radio. lol that is good stuff Justin. That iron lung machine is crazy. at least the Outhouse had toilet paper in it, lol. That old Owl slot machine is Awesome, i want that 1800s History. Good ol' Masonic lodge @ 12:56. The Blue Swallow Neon is Awesome, Adam would Like that Neon ...i like how the bird lights up and go out. I like how the bird on the sign flashes when it is sped up on the outro looks a lot better. Safe Travels Justin. #ThumbsUp For The Video. #Q4P #RandomlandAdventure #ItsTheSometimesVlog
We're Rt. 66 veterans, but we had never visited Tinkertown USA in Tijeras NM until last year. It's a must-see!
Two videos away ;)
JustinScarred Hoping you saw the Hummingbird Hawk Moths!
Accompanied by his feathered companion, the Rainbringer traveled the southwest, bestowing life to the arid wastelands and battling the forces of evil.
"I bring rain to the desert." He certainly does. In every sense of the word.
Ole Rt. 66 is beautiful, but kind of sad too, because much of it is slowly but surely slipping away. Thank you again for the spectacular work on making this video, you truly are a genius.
Hey Justin, seeing you wearing that green day shirt made me go rock out to the "SCARRED" ......." It's alright, it's ok and what your mommy and daddy don't know will never hurt me" awesome stuff dude..! I know that was your past but that is something you should be very proud of ! You are a great song writer and musician, you should give your newer viewers a taste now and then of your other talents....
Love ya Bro....
Cool! An old F-100 jet, Vietnam-era fighter bomber. Love your videos, Justin!
Loving the Green Day t-shirt!
Justin, seriously, I am so grateful AtW got you into TH-cam vlogging. You deserve so many more subscribers, what can we do to spread the word?

Would love to see a road trip with you, Adam, Jacob the Carpetbagger and Tim Tracker.
The jet fighter is a North American F-100 Super Saber in what looks like New Mexico Air Guard markings.
HEY!!! Good video as usual. 😊

One of my great friends owns the Motel Safari, so cool of you to feature it! You should stay there next time, the Clint Eastwood Rawhide themed suite is incredible.
Who hasn't fired a few torpedos from there caboose lol.
Great video Justin!!!!!!!! 👍
Thanks for the Bill Peet reference!
Hey Justin, since you seem to be the rain maker, how about you stay away from the Grand Canyon on 19 June? I'm traveling quite a distance to get there, and I'd love to be able to see something amazing. Thanks! I love your videos, and you and Ally are such a cute couple.

Thanks for the video! We were just in Tucumcari this past Memorial weekend and stayed at the Roadrunner! We didn’t have long to stay in town as we were traveling Route 66. Now we can have another reason to come back! Thanks for all your Route 66 videos, and keeping the love of Route 66 alive!
Awesome vlog! I got the pin from Tucumcari that Justin bought at his "garage sale" he had at the Waffle house a while ago. It always amazes me knowing that I own something Justin had bought.
IT'S ZOMBIE MATER AGAIN!

Hi Justin! My girlfriend and I just got jobs at Disney World. Come by and maybe I'll be the one to give you a ride to Magic Kingdom on the monorail!

Anti-drug mural on the side of the theater...Cheech & Chong poster in the lobby..lol
🤙🏽
The “I’m on meth tour” of Tucumcari, NM.......
.
I’m wondering if anyone has any Motel stories that they care to share. 🙈🙉🙊
Hey, Justin, how much did the Blue Swallow charge for taking photos?
Wigwam Kumar told me that because a RV damaged the Blue Swallow sign, he did not want me to pull my travel trailer, which I pull with a SUV, it's that small and light, into his Wigwam parking lot.
Sorry to bring it up, but the thought of that fella' still riles me.
We, too, love Tucumcari. We have eaten at Kix on 66 twice.
Actually the blue swallow gave me two patches when I went over there haha - I tried to pay for them and they said "You gave us a gift, we give you a gift" (because they figured out who left billy the burro lol)
A Raft of Wandering Otters. Ack! Please refrain from using the "W" word! (*shudder*)
1st!
PLEASE STOP THE MUSIC!! IT'S SO ANNOYING!
Thank you for the constructive criticism
JustinScarred you handled that well!
