An historical note (as per Mr Schaffer's email above), Riverdale Rd was MD
Route 412 until 1991.

MD 412[edit

Maryland Route 412
Location: Riverdale <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riverdale_Park,_Maryland>
Existed: 1930–1991

*Maryland Route 412* was the designation for Riverdale Road from US 1
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Route_1_in_Maryland> east to MD 201
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maryland_Route_201> in Riverdale
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riverdale_Park,_Maryland>.[26]

The
highway was constructed as a concrete road in 1929 and 1930.[2]

At
the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baltimore_%26_Ohio_Railroad>, MD 412 used
one-block portions of Rhode Island Avenue, Queensbury Road, and Lafayette
Avenue to connect with the segments of Riverdale Road on either side of the
tracks.[27]

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_former_Maryland_state_highways_(400%E2%80%93499)#cite_note-1946_map-25>
However,
by 1956, the highway used Queensbury Road west to US 1 in the 1950s before
reverting to Riverdale Road around 1963.[10]

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_former_Maryland_state_highways_(400%E2%80%93499)#cite_note-1963_map-28>
The
highway was truncated on the east side of the railroad in 1978.[29]

MD
412 was removed from the state highway system in 1991.[3]
