History
Route 148 was initially Route 27, established in 1922 between Savannah, Missouri and Iowa. The part south of Mayville became part of US 71 in 1926, but the rest remained until it was renumbered to match Iowa Highway 148 in 1969.
On September 14, 1933, Route 148 (then Route 27) north of Hopkins was the scene of a gun fight between the
Missouri Highway Patrol and Harold B. Thornbrugh, a Kansas outlaw who was wanted for the murder of Omaha, Nebraska special duty police officer Otto Peterson. Thornbrugh was killed and a trooper wounded.[2]
