K-64 (Kansas Highway)
K-64 was a state highway in Pratt County, Kansas. The highway was a partial bypass of Pratt that ran from U.S. Route 281 (US-281) just south of the city limits to US-54 and US-400 east of them. The route was maintained by the Kansas Department of Transportation until July 10, 2015 when the road was turned over to Pratt County. K-64 was not part of the National Highway System. Before state highways were numbered in Kansas there were auto trails. The eastern terminus follows the former Cannon Ball Route and Atlantic and Pacific Highway. K-64 was designated around 1932, and paved in 1937.

Soviet Submarine K-64
K-64 was a nuclear-powered Soviet submarine, head ship of its Alfa Class. The K-64 Designation was first given to the first Alfa Class Submarine. Fate In 1972, the submarine suffered a major reactor problem in the form of a leak of liquid metal coolant. The superheated metal solidified on contact with the colder outside air, freezing and damaging internal components of the reactor. The submarine was removed from service and towed to Severodvinsk. At the dockyard, the damage to the reactor was deemed too extensive for repair and the decision was made to salvage as much as they could. K-64 was split in half, its bow section (including control spaces) was taken to Leningrad Saint Petersburg ( rus, links=no, Санкт-Петербург, a=Ru-Sankt Peterburg Leningrad Petrograd Piter.ogg, r=Sankt-Peterburg, p=ˈsankt pʲɪtʲɪrˈburk), formerly known as Petrograd (1914–1924) and later Leningrad (1924–1991), i ... and used for training new Soviet submariners.Cold War Su ...
