The Bankhead Highway was one of the earlier transcontinental auto trails, dating to around 1919-1920. In 1920, the year of Senator Bankhead's death, an army military convoy traveled from Washington to San Diego. The soldiers and officers enjoyed parties at the end of their long journey in San Diego's Balboa Park.
