Hand-drawn Texas Electric Railway Waco/Corsicana Division map. Note: Both Dallas-Waco and Dallas-Corsicana Division lines started in Dallas and ran through Oak Cliff Junction and Monroe before splitting off to Waco and Corsicana. See Texas Electric Railway Time Card CP.2005.GC.10-1 for more information. Map 5 shows a section of Texas Electric Railway track in Dallas between Galloway Street and Lynn Haven, running parallel to Woodbine Street. Other notable features are Moore Street, Woodbine Street, East Waco Street, Renner Drive, Jackson Stop, Roger O. Mills Grade School, and a Dallas Railway and Terminal Company phone booth. Created by Johnnie J. Myers and Walter Donaldson, while riding in the rear of a Texas Electric Railway car on the Denison and Waco lines. The number of the map is indicated by a circled number in the bottom right corner. This detailed map was later redrawn by Steve Scalzo from the Central Electric Railfans Association (CERA) for Johnnie J. Myers' book, Texas Electric Railway. This section can be seen on Map 3 and Map 8, detail 24. |
