Oak Cliff. Oswald’s path on foot
(blue), the 30-Marsalis bus route (green), the 55-Lancaster bus route
(red) and the Greyhound bus route
(white). Oswald’s path goes from the
boarding house, upper left, to 10th and Patton, where it abruptly reverses
direction toward the Texas Theater. The
Marsalis and Lancaster routes converge at the Dallas Zoo. The Lancaster and Greyhound routes both take
Lancaster Road south of Saner Road. The
Veterans Hospital is at lower right.

Oswald’s original escape plan did not include
stopping at his boarding house. He would
take the Marsalis bus (which left Elm & Lamar at 12:40 pm— perfect timing) and
use his transfer to board the Lancaster bus where the routes converged at the
Zoo. His forced change of plans meant he
had to walk to the Lancaster route. The
book describes his escape path step-by-step and why he was forced south for
several blocks. At 10th Street he could
finally turn northeast where his goal was the Lancaster bus stop at Ewing and
Jefferson. That, my friends, is where
Oswald was headed. (See The Final Truth, pp. 169‒180.)
There are other original maps in The Final Truth, each created by examining
and deciphering blurry 1963 bus schedules literally street by street.
