scan from the uploader's (Slambo) collection of employee and passenger timetables; the original timetable pictured here was published as promotional material by Pacific Great Eastern Railway in Canada in 1964. |

| Portion used |
The image of the entire cover is used |
| Low resolution? |
The image is of sufficiently low resolution and includes no retouching to remove flaws as to not hamper or dilute the copyright holder's use of the original image |
| Purpose of use |
To illustrate the public promotion of passenger train operations of the Pacific Great Eastern Railway by the railway itself, which became British Columbia Railway in 1972. |
| Replaceable? |
As this railway ceased to exist under the Pacific Great Eastern name in 1972, the photograph on the timetable cover cannot be reproduced with modern equipment, and no free alternative can be created that shows how the railway promoted itself; any attempt to recreate promotional material with free images would fail to convey the meaning intended by the railway. |
