Hand-drawn Texas Electric Railway Waco/Corsicana Division map.

See Texas Electric Railway Time Card CP.2005.GC.10-1 for more information. Map 8 shows Texas Electric Railway track in Dallas between Cranfill Stop and Elmore Street, crossing diagonally over Harlandale Avenue. Other notable features are Illinois Avenue. 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.

This detailed map was later redrawn by Steve Scalzo from the Central Electric Railfans Association (CERA) for Johnnie J. Myers' book, Texas Electric Railway.
