BARSTOW -- As city officials work to clean up the town, they are also trying to get litter cleaned up in an area they don't control -- along Interstate 15.
Caltrans sent workers to remove trash along the freeway in Barstow last week after the city requested the cleanup because "it was not presentable and there was just too much litter and trash," city spokesman John Rader said.
However, the city still plans to adopt a two-mile stretch of Interstate 15 -- from the Armory Road area to the Mojave River area -- that is safe enough, Barbour and Rader said.

 Harry Partch: Why Barstow, by Mark Silverstein
The fact is, Barstow is a genuine tourist destination for the very few, save "road groupies" on their nouveau-nostalgic pilgrimages to the towns along "Historic Route 66," and the fewer still who are drawn to the severity, subtlety, mystery, and majesty of the Mojave Desert which envelops it.
As the past is pealed back and old roadbeds and wheel ruts are revealed, the routes that led to and through this area exfoliate deep into the history of the region and the psyche of the nation.
Back when Partch was knocking around Barstow, Route 66 turned southwest out of town where it gently and steadily rose in elevation as it followed the banks of the Mojave River toward its source before veering off and plunging into Cajon Pass and drained down to the Pacific Ocean.
