This work is copyrighted and unlicensed. It does not fall into one of the blanket fair use categories listed at Wikipedia:Fair use#Images or Wikipedia:Fair use#Audio_clips. However, it is believed that the use of this work in the article "Amtrak":

To illustrate the object in question
Where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information
On the English-language Wikipedia ([1]), hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation ([2]),

qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Fair use and Wikipedia:Copyrights.

To the uploader: this tag is not a sufficient claim of fair use. You must also include the source of the work, all available copyright information, and a detailed fair use rationale.

A map of the Amtrak system, from [3] .

[edit] Fair use for Amtrak

It's a map of the system. It should be OK for fair use. It adds significantly to the article, and its inclusion shouldn't hurt Amtrak in any way. Eventually I hope to make a public domain map of Amtrak (and other railroads in the US) but for now this will do. --SPUI (T - C)

It is disputed whether or not this image violates our first fair use criterion. See the talk page for details.

Closing administrator: if the decision is to Keep the image please put {{Rk}} on the image page. If the decision is to Delete please archive the discussion on the talk page between {{Rtd}} and {{Rb}} and delete the image page.

I will create a new map, but it will take me a week or so to do. --Keeleysam 00:59, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] N.B. Not in Public Domain

US government works are in the public domain. However, a for-profit corporation owned by the US government--along with a handful of private investors--is not part of the US government, and so its works, including this, are not in the public domain.

This image is used under a fair use rationale, but may fail Wikipedia's first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a free image that provides substantially the same information might reasonably be found or created. See the talk page for details.

If you believe that a free replacement image can not be reasonably found or created, please add the following to this page:

If this image is determined to be replaceable within one week from (11 December 2006) (18 December), the image may be deleted by any administrator. Do not remove this tag.

Tagger: If this image has, at the time of tagging, a rationale explaining why it is irreplaceable, please do not forget to explain on the talk page why you think that rationale is not valid. Tags applied in contravention of this requirement may be removed; if a rationale is added after the tagging, the normal process for disputing a tag should be followed. After adding this tag, please notify the uploader with
{{subst:replaceable|Amtrak Routes.svg}} ~~~~
Also consider adding:
{{subst:refu-c}}
to the caption in article(s) the image is used to give a little advance warning that a free licensed replacement should be sought after. Adding {{reqphoto}}, or one of the more specific image request templates (listed on the reqphoto template page), to the article's talk page may also be helpful if there are no other images in the article already.

Its a recreatable map. ccwaters 19:20, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
