State Road 427 is a roughly northeast-southwest two-lane surface road between U.S. Route 6 at Waterloo and the Ohio state line east of Hamilton, where it meets Ohio State Route 34 into Edon, Ohio. Fifteen miles in length, it is a child of U.S. Route 27, which is now decommissioned north of Fort Wayne.
Before Interstate 69 was completed between Fort Wayne and Auburn during the 1960s, Indiana 427 extended almost due south along what is now a north-south county road now identified as "CR 427" between Auburn and its former junction with State Road 1 north of Fort Wayne. That section of State Route 427 was decommissioned soon after the completion of the section of Interstate 69 that parallels that stretch of old State Road 427.
