For "Route 80" to make sense you need to remember that PA route 380 was PA 
route 80 before it was renumbered to deconfuse people about I-80.

Of course then I-80N into Scranton was renumbered I-380, and PA 380 became 
SR400 anyway.

PA380 starts downtown and runs via Penn Hills, Plum and on out almost to 
Saltsburg. Continuing on PA286 brings you to Indiana. No carlines to most 
of the area outside the city where it runs... except the old Oakmont line 
which crossed it where Robinson Blvd/Verona Road now crosses it.

Who was Snodder anyway?
