History
US 195 was established and planned in the original 1926 plan for the U.S. highway system. When US 195 was established, the highway combined different highways together. In Idaho, US 195 was co-signed with U.S. Route 95 and a short segment of Sampson Trail Y. In Washington, US 195 was co-signed with PSH 3 ED, part of PSH 3 CP, and part of PSH 3. The original northern terminus was in Sandpoint, Idaho, and the route from the current terminus to Sandpoint was co-signed U.S. Route 2. This section was replaced fully by US 2 in 1969.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“We don’t know when our name came into being or how some distant ancestor acquired it. We don’t understand our name at all, we don’t know its history and yet we bear it with exalted fidelity, we merge with it, we like it, we are ridiculously proud of it as if we had thought it up ourselves in a moment of brilliant inspiration.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
“When the landscape buckles and jerks around, when a dust column of debris rises from the collapse of a block of buildings on bodies that could have been your own, when the staves of history fall awry and the barrel of time bursts apart, some turn to prayer, some to poetry: words in the memory, a stained book carried close to the body, the notebook scribbled by hand—a center of gravity.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“I assure you that in our next class we will concern ourselves solely with the history of Egypt, and not with the more lurid and non-curricular subject of living mummies.”
—Griffin Jay, and Reginald LeBorg. Prof. Norman (Frank Reicher)
