Mohawk Trail in New York[edit]

I removed the last part of the following sentence:

Today the Mohawk Trail is part of Massachusetts Route 2, which was created as one of the United States' first scenic highways, and the New York State Thruway.[1]

For three reasons: First is that the linked source says, "The most famous of these was possibly the Iroquois/Mohawk Trail. which was a 600 km beaten path between Buffalo and Albany in New York State and which is now New York Route 5" not the Thruway. Second is that the sentence was very awkwardly constructed. And third is that the entire rest of the article is about the Mohawk Trail in MA. If someone would like to re-write the article with New York in mind through out, that would be great. But as it stands now, it's just more confusing to say that the trail is the western part of MA-2 and all of NY-5 and then in the very next sentence say, "[it goes] from Orange, Massachusetts to Williamstown, Massachusetts, for about 65 miles (105 km) through the Berkshire mountains."
