As we enter downtown Ogallala, you’ll want to turn right to follow 26 east/61 south to I-80, where US-26 will come to its eastern terminus. Stay straight for 30 east, the long way across the state

As we head out of Ogallala, we’ll get an N-61 omitting reassurance shield. 61 was routed onto this alignment reasonably recently, so it’s possible signage hasn’t caught up

A few hundred feet later, 26 and 61 will split from US-30
