Surveying began on August 21, 1850 and a completed report was presented by Walter Gwynn to the stockholders of the railroad in May 1851. These plat maps in this volume show the right of way to be secured from property owners in Alamance, Guilford, Randolph and Davidson counties and portray the route of the railroad westward in a contiguous line beginning with map number one. The individual manuscript maps are drawn to a scale of one inch to 200 feet and have been hand colored in ink and watercolor. Orientation of the maps varies from plat to plat.
