MD 620

Carroll
Taneytown
MD 620 · was Trevanion Rd.
from MD 84 west to Taneytown.

MD 621

Caroline
Harmony
American Corner
MD 621 · was Grove-Agner Rd. (now Auction Rd)
between MD 16 and MD 313

No longer assigned (decommissioned 1970s).

East of American Corner, this was part of MD 313, later shifted eastward. MD 621 was still on the maps into the seventies. In the early 2000s, the former route was renamed Auction Road, apparantly named after an auction house along the road just east of American Corner. I'll leave the old name above for now, since it was never Auction Road and MD 621 at the same time. Forming the other crossroads of American Corner are two other former routes. MD 621 was the east-west; to the north was MD 630, and to the south was MD 617. The eastern part of MD 621 and MD 630 were once part of MD 313.

MD 622

Carroll
Westminster
Warfieldsburg
MD 622 · was Stone Chapel Rd
3.27 mi.; from MD 31 (Avondale) to MD 27 (Warfieldsburg) (2 sections at one point).

Status: Decommissioned 1955; transferred to Carroll County maintenance. (SRC Min. 09-14-1955, Effective 07-01-1956)

This mysterious L-shaped route ran south of MD 31 (now the 'old' 31, or 852), then east to MD 27. In 1948, there were two non-contiguous sections, a small stub south of MD 31 and the other going east from the intersection of Chapel and Stone Chapel east toward, but not touching, MD 27. Everything in this area has been widened, in likely anticipation of development.

MD 627

Somerset
Oriole
MD 627 · Oriole Rd.
2.48 mi.; from MD 363 soutwest to Crab Island Rd., Oriole.

Marked east-west.

When I first saw 627 and the town of Oriole on a map, I thought it had to be some kind of 'copyright trap' put in by a mapmaker. But they are really there, and 627 has been around at least since 1940.

0.45 mi.; from MD 53 east to US 220.

Unmarked. Only signage is "TO US 220" and "TO MD 53"
