Old Red Trail Welcome to the Old Red Old Ten Scenic Byway Before highways there were trails Old RedOld Ten between Mandan andDickinson is not only a beautiful byway traversing rolling countryside and small towns but also a reminder of the early efforts of the American Automobile Association AAA to provide a route for North Dakotans to travel independently of the railroad in the newly available and widely embraced automobile. The Old Red Trail naturally followed a mostly parallel path to the railroad tracks across the state allowing for gentle grades and easy access to established towns and villages. What started as a dirt trail in the early 1900s evolved over five decades into Interstate94 making travel across the state safer faster and more convenient.
