The records are copies of a few of the department's standard "A.D." forms. The most useful are the A.D. 80 division maps and station lists. The earliest edition (1908) covers only Lines East, but includes both the maps and list. Later editions (ca. 1917 and ca. 1929) contain only the maps, with the station list a separate form A.D. 80a. The maps show the lines in each division in red with other divisions in heavy black lines, and selected non-PRR railroads as light black lines. The names and locations of all branches and stations are also shown. The other forms are generally accounting instructions and regulations and tables of wage rates governing departmental employees.
