Coach USA

Adam, I am not sure where you get your information George Grieve is not the CEO of Stagecoach US Operations. George is the Northern District General Manager for Coach at our Shortline Facility. The title of CEO/COO goes to Dale Moser. I currently work for Coach USA in Pittsburgh and Dale was just in town not too long ago

MTA Bus fleet

Newark Light Rail

Hey, I noticed you've made this edit a second time now, and I wanted to point out that the edit is incorrect. The Newark Light Rail never was called the #7 City Subway; take a look at the NLR article for yourself to see this. Thanks! —lensovettalk01:01, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wheelchair access in Buses used by NJT

Hello there, I was just wondering if there is a reason why "no" is capitalized and in bold? Also, why not just use a checkbox instead of yes/no, like ✓ or ✔ ? —lensovettalk08:03, 5 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for Image:IngersollRandLogo.gif

Thanks for uploading Image:IngersollRandLogo.gif. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 21:07, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Your new MTA navbox

Your new MTA navbox, {{MTA (New York)}}, is very well done. Unfortunately, it has considerable overlap with other navigation boxes that already exist. If you look at the bottom of 1 (New York City Subway Service), you will see that the box you added links to many of the same articles as the navbox that was already there, {{NYCS infobox}}.

It may well be that we'll all conclude your box is better, and that the old one should be deprecated. Then again, maybe not. I am fairly confident, however, that both should not be present in the same article. There's too much duplication.

I have launched a discussion topic at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject New York City Subway. I would ask you to put your thoughts there, along with others who are regularly working on the subway articles. I would also ask you not to put your {{MTA (New York)}} template on any further subway articles until there is a consensus about what to do. Marc Shepherd 14:03, 28 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Putnam Line

Why have you included the Putnam Line in the MTA infobox, when it was never operated by the MTA (excepting the Marble Hill stub, which is hardly on a par with the Hudson Line, Harlem Line, etc.)? Choess 15:53, 28 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

USG Corporation - Establishment of company

Hi there. I was rather puzzled as to why you reverted my change to USG Corporation, moving it out of the Category:Companies established in 1901 and back into the more general Category:1901 establishments. Is USG Corporation not a company? Greenshed 12:54, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You can't semi-protect

You are not an admin, so you can't semi-protect a page (Nadarajah Raviraj by simply adding the semi-protect notice tag. An admin has to work magic and then add the tag only as a notice. Hu 20:10, 13 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, how are you?

I see that you decided to make Cablevision into a disambiguation page instead of how it was currently presented as a redirection to Cablevision (US). You did that without commenting on the Talk page.

I personally believe that the U.S. Cablevision should be the article called Cablevision, not Cablevision (US). The Cablevision from Long Island is an internationally recognized, publically traded company, which owns major national cable networks. The Canadian Cablevision is a small regional cable company in Quebec.

In fact, there are more companies called Cablevision, past and present. More research should be done, and put on Cablevision (disambiguation). Any opinions on this can be placed on the talk page, or send directly to myself. Thanks. Milchama 21:59, 16 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Rockland Coaches Inc.

Adam, Red and Tan Lines is still a brand name from Rockland Coaches. It has from the inception of the company to present. Yes, the DOT says Rockland coaches but in fact red and tan is on ALL of the Rockland Coach Busses. So in fact my statement was truthful on the bus or not.

Indeed, my IP address is from Chicago, but my growing up in Bergen County and having an immediate family member working for the company for 30 years tends to back up my statements. Also, you being from Queens may distort your opinion mainly because Rockland Coach does not service your City.

As well you may wish to add while you replace my Rockland coach’s statement. 85% of TOR (Tour of Rockland) is operated by Rockland Coaches Inc. (Red and Tan)

As well, Rockland Coaches is incorporated.

I would have messaged you privately but I could not figure out how to do so.

Nationwide Insurance

Hi. I believe Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company owns Nationwide Financial Services and several other public companies. Thus I intend on reversing your name change and redirect. 2*6 01:49, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:Aaron Rents.gif. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 17:08, 31 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there, I noticed that you added some bus routes on the 1 train page. I don't think that's a good idea, since it was agreed at WT:NYCPT that the extra bus information would make the table too wordy. That said, the only bus listings that should be on the page are airport-bound buses, e.g. the M60. Reply to me so we can discuss this issue further.

NYCT stub name

I noticed that you proposed a new transportation stub at the Stub sorting proposals page and then quickly withdrew it. Our existing project stub template is supposed to cover the NYC metro area. So I can only assume that perhaps you want a better name for the template. Could you please comment here, where the current name of the stub template (and its category) is proposed to be changed?

Hi. I guess you know me from subchat. Whenever I get out somewhere I always take a camerea and take pictures. They are both with and without train. By the way, in commons, I opened a whole category of Brooklyn Neighborhood photos. Does someone pay attention to them?

Image source problem with Image:Bee Line System.jpg

Image Copyright problem
Image Copyright problem

This is an automated message from a robot. You have recently uploaded Image:Bee Line System.jpg. The file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 15:52, 12 September 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. If you believe you received this message in error, please notify the bot's owner.

Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our Criteria for speedy deletion.

I have noticed that you have removed all bus images for those articles. However, I personally think there should some images in those articles, but not necessarily in-article galleries. The Gillig article has images for each model as good examples. I think that each article should have at least three unique examples each. The Rapid Ride New Flyer DE60LF is a good example as it represents a New Flyer articulated bus as well as a diesel electric hybrid bus. I would also like to see an image for a bus with New Flyer's restyled front end as well as one of New Flyer's older high floor buses.

Good images for the New Flyer article:

You missed one of the three exceptions about piping on disambiguation pages: "Use piping if you are linking to an anchor point on the target page." This is confirmed in the section on URL anchor notation on the same page: you are supposed to pipe when the referenced material is contained on another page. I've reverted to my version, and made further changes in conformance with MOS:DAB. The way you have it, the user isn't even being taken to the promised material, and is likely to conclude that the link is broken and may even delete it. —Largo Plazo (talk) 16:27, 17 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you change the licensing on the SEPTA logo? Just because the logo is trademarked doesn't mean its copyrighted — there's a big difference between the two. Wikipedia has no policy against using trademarks, and the logo itself is in public domain because it is basically a different colored version of the original logo (Image:SEPTA logo 1970s.svg), which is in public domain as well. In addition to that, simple geometric shapes, such as that which make up the SEPTA logo, cannot be copyrighted because of their simplicity (see Commons:Template:PD-textlogo). –Dream out loud (talk) 19:58, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article George (bus service), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

AfD nomination of George (bus service)

An editor has nominated George (bus service), an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/George (bus service) and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 23:44, 1 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Public Transit Systems in Ontario

When you created Template:GTA Mass Transit you wondered whether Hamilton Street Railway should be included. It is hard to define the limits of the GTA and this got me thinking about what should be entered or eliminated. For an example of my thinking, Coach Canada, VIA, Amtrack, etc., are not mass transit or exclusively GTA, and at one time even the airport was entered. Components of the Toronto system are probably better accessed from Template:TTC. Inspired by your original thoughts and keeping it exclusive to transit systems, I have now created the wider ranging Template:Public Transit Systems in Ontario, which could possibly replace the GTA template. -Secondarywaltz (talk) 00:21, 13 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Template:MTA (New York) bus and subway fares requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{tranclusionless}}</noinclude>).

You don't list an article at Articles for Deletion if you've placed a {{prod}} tag on.

Greetings, Adam. Where did the nice photo gallery go? I don't see it in the Commons, though you indicate moving it there. Are you planning to add it to the photos already there? To me it was one of the most lively features of the article (and relevant). Is there a policy mandating that it can't remain where it was? If there is no such restriction, I would like to bring it back. Hertz1888 (talk) 20:47, 5 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I don't understand either why you deleted the Gallery. Most of those Gallery images haven't been moved to Commons and at least some of these images should remain in the article anyway. Folks shouldn't have to migrate away from a Wikipedia article to see images of the subject, so I'm reverting to previous version. JGHowes talk - 21:05, 5 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bus portraits

Excellent bus photography, Adam. I am not sure why you have changed the image in the infobox for Coach Canada to this one Image:Coach Canada MCI J4500 83918 in New Jersey USA.jpg that shows a paint job for Safeway Tours, a client. I thought your previous picture Image:Coach Canada 83585.jpg was an excellent representation of a typical Coach Canada bus, except that the bus floated on a sea of asphalt. You just need to trim the bottom and modify the size to 1024 x 576, which would give a contemporary 'widescreen' format of 16 x 9 and ground the bus better. Both pictures should be shown somewhere in the article because the tour business is a big part of what they do and Safeway Tours ideally represents that. Keep up the good work. -Secondarywaltz (talk) 12:51, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have now added the fleet number to the article, it was 27513. I have however been to the Cobham bus rally (in the snow - it nearly got cancelled!! :) ), where I got a photo of a standard Stagecoach Winchester bus. Do you think for the Stagecoach group article, a bus in the standard livery but still showing the buses used in that area would be better or worse than a special park and ride variation?? Thanks, Arriva436talk 16:45, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have now done this. However I left the other picture on there (I was going to remove it) because I decided it had more value than I first thought, an image to show that not all buses are corporate branded. Arriva436talk 17:56, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Coach USA references

I'm glad to see you developing Coach USA, but I noticed there are no references in the article. The Surface Transportation Board is one good source.

Divisions

After sell offs and consolidation the remaining management companies seem to be: [1]

  • Coach USA North Central (we might call it the midwest)
  • Coach USA Northeast (your 'hood)
  • Coach Canada (my country - but it is part of Coach USA)
  • Megabus (with two operators; the original Megabus and now Megabus Northeast. NEW)

Operations

You removed the subsidiary list, which was derived from the official website, saying that it was no longer necessary because "companies still existing are in the table below". Even if that were true, the default Wikipedia search does not include templates so those items have to be mentioned somewhere in an article to make them universally available. Are you saying that Coach USA no longer runs sightseeing operations in New York, Pittsburg and Chicago? Do companies like Cape Transit, Country Road Tours, Mountaineer Coach, Park Tours, etc., not exist? The information on that list is only a starting point and far from being removed the information should be expanded with any missing articles or redirects created. I also wondered why you 'amalgamated' several units under Olympia Trails without citing any official verification.

Thank you again for your efforts. You have your own ideas about how you wish to develop these articles and I will not interfere with that. My time is limited at the moment, but I will submit any additional supporting references I discover. -Secondarywaltz (talk) 15:34, 19 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bus Pictures

  • This picture of yours, taken on a rainy day in Hamilton, has always been one of my favourites. The atmosphere with the reflections on the wet streets and the buildings and trees framing the bus - this is just excellent. The only problem I had, as I often experience with my own attempts, is that the bus 'floated' on a sea of asphalt. I have created this version by simply cutting off that excess and grounding the bus, which now leaps out like a Ti-Cat. Please check that I got the attribution right.
  • I have taken a couple of pictures of Academy Express operated coaches in downtown Toronto, but I can't seem to find any relevance in the article for this type of tour bus. They are Image:Academy_Bus_1715.JPG and Image:Academy_Bus_1717.JPG.
  • p.s. I still think your Coach Canada bus picture is better than mine, but I will keep trying to get something with a nicer background than either of those. How about Niagara Falls?
Thank you. -Secondarywaltz (talk) 16:33, 14 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Category Removal

I saw that you removed the category for Image:Fox river grove 1995 bus accident scene.jpg. Why? That is exactly the category it belongs in. It is an image of an incident that happened in Fox River Grove, Illinois, so it belongs in Category:Images of Fox River Grove, Illinois.--Kranar drogin (talk) 10:10, 16 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your right, and it was deleted from the Wikipedia, but with the Illinois project we categorize all our pictures along with project tags as you can see here with Category:Images of Illinois. There is no rule against doing so, and actually sections such as DYK like the fact that we tag our stuff here so they don't have to upload, lock, then delete once it has been off the front page. So, being part of the Illinois Project, we will continue to do so until it breaks a rule, which I don't foresee it doing. I can understand why you did it though.--Kranar drogin (talk) 01:57, 17 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of List of Megabus and Megatrain services

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article List of Megabus and Megatrain services, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Quantum of Solace disambiguation

Not that I'm disputing that there should be a disambiguation page, but as the film is highly likely to be the primary topic for this title, wouldn't it make more sense to have Quantum of Solace as the article for the film, with a hatnote linking to Quantum of Solace (disambiguation), which would link to the film and the other topics?

photo use: NJ Transit Bus

RE: New Jersey Transit Nova RTS 82VN suburban 1587 at Willowbrook Mall, prior to being wrapped for gobus.

Hi, Adam -

This is John Passarella. I'm an author whose most recent book has an NJ transit bus in it. I'm mocking up a "book cover" for a free eSerial (chapter by chapter) release of my book. I was interested in using your NJ transit photo (see above description) as one of several images (in a montage) on the cover. I'm isolating it from the background, so you only see the bus, the first third of it in its current placement on my mock cover. So, I have three questions, (1) can use your image on my Website promoting the free eSerial with a photo credit? (If so, let me know how it should read and what URL you'd like me to use. (2) It's possible I may use the cover in the first chapter release of the eSerial, or even with EVERY chapter if it doesn't seem like overkill: would it be okay to credit you with the first such use? Or would you want a credit in every chapter? (I haven't even decided yet if I'd use it with every chapter, or if I'd repeat all the copyright info, etc., but if I did the former, I'd probably do the latter.) Again, how would you want such a credit to read. (3) At the end of the eSerial run, I may either sell print rights or release the whole book as a print on demand title. If the former, the publisher would no doubt commission their own cover; if the latter, I might use the cover I used all along for the eSerial. With Print on Demand, the total number of copies is unknown, purely "on demand" as it says. Again, I can credit you here, in print form and that would definitely be in each copy subsequently printed. If that use is okay, how would you want your credit to read in the print version?

I generally get photos from stock photo sites, but didn't have much luck on the NJ Transit photos. I liked the angle of your photo and the size was large enough for me to use in a mockup. If you have a higher resolution version you'd like me to use instead, I'd love to have it. The bus portion of the whole cover is small, so it's not critical. I think I can get away with the size/resolution I have.

My author Website is here http://www.passarella.com if you want to check out my prior novels. This one (SHIMMER) is a bit of an experiment, at least with the free eSerial.

Your uploads

Good day. I see that you have uploaded a number of images to Wikipedia. First off, thank you for your contributions. Unfortunately, there are some guidelines that we need to follow with copyrighted images. Specifically, you need to add a source for the image (a link to a website will do), a copyright tag (there are some listed at WP:ICT), and a rationale explaining why we can use a copyrighted image (explained at WP:NFURG). I see that your images fail to include one of these. Please stop uploading images and address the concerns listed above. If you need assistance, you can ask at the help desk. If you do not fix these images, and you continue to make bad uploads, you will be blocked and your images will be deleted. Thanks for your contributions!

Image usage

Hi,

My name is Fiona. I work for Dorling Kindersley, a publishers in london. We are currently looking for an image of a new greyhound bus to include in a childrens book about busses, one in a series of transport themed books. We found yours on wikipedia, and its perfect for what we need.

We were wondering if you would grant us permission to use your photo of the new style greyhound bus for use in our book?

Please contact me for details.

Blue Bird(?) bus with 'shuttle' sign in collage

On the 'New Jersey Transit Bus Operations' page is a collage of some of its fleet, and among the shots is one of what I believe to be a Blue Bird or similar inset-motor unit, which I have personally seen previously in Easton/Phillipsburg, taken in 2008 in Journal Square, Jersey City. What route was this unit travelling, do you recall? Zigwithbag (talk) 14:26, 9 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

source for NYC MCI D4500CT powertrain

could you give me a source for the fact that the new MCI's in NYC and NJT are equipped with CAT C13 engines and not Cummins ISM-410's. only because it's been Cummins for a while and now it's changed without notification. Thanks Fan Railer (talk) 20:50, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Express Buses in NYCS infoboxes

Hi Adam,

FYI, User:Jimmy Slade has been blocked for refusing to respond to valid editors' concerns regarding stub tagging, and being uncivil in general. You can remove the Express Buses from infoboxes in station articles and they should stay gone now. Acps110 (talk) 09:44, 5 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Bully for Bugs screenshot.png

Thanks for uploading File:Bully for Bugs screenshot.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box.

NFL player moves

We only name them (position, born BIRTHYEAR) when they both play the same position. If they both play American football but different positions, then it's simpler to disambiguate that way. Please don't make it more complicated than it is.►Chris NelsonHolla! 03:15, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of Greenie

An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is Greenie. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").

Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Greenie. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.

Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:07, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am Dashawn Collins, I run a site full of NJ Transit Info and i was wondering if I could use some of your photos on my site. It would truly be great if i could

Can I ask you a question?

Earlier, NY MTA MCI D4500CT was Caterpillar, but engine problem resulted to change it to Cummins, and you change it back to Caterpillar. Where did you get the engine information from? New Jersey Transit's roster's D4500CT from NY MTA says the engine is Cummins, and that is a total mix up. Information on TTMG is unreliable, as there are too many incorrect information (like a motor of R160). Even earlier on the MTA Regional Bus Operations bus fleet page has a history of putting Cummins. Please get back to me. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Takuma Ishizeki (talkcontribs) 15:40, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Response for SubChat

Hi! This is slightly off-topic to Wikipedia, but in response to [4], would you kindly point the users to List of New York City Subway stations#Stations with the same name? And do you have an idea why aren't more people from the forums interested in editing Wikipedia? Tinlinkin (talk) 07:52, 8 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello!? Nymf hideliho! 12:36, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Noting the moves, I had thought that there was a specific naming convention that is supposed to be used that doesn't identify by band name for persons, but only by singers. The moves presumed naming conventions. --AEMoreira042281 (talk) 12:52, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Image request

Mr. Moreira,

I'm at Liberty Science Center in Jersey City, NJ, and am working on a news story to be used inside our museum. We post brief news items on rolling computer displays around the museum, and I was working on a story about the new tunnel under the Hudson River, the Mass Transit Tunnel. I'd like to use your image, "NJ Transit GP40PH-2B 4216 waits to pull Train 4622.jpg" as an illustration alongside the story.

I'm writing because we'd like to give you proper credit, but do not have the space to post the full text of the GDFL license alongside the credit (and my reading of your Licensing Guide indicates that the full text of the license must appear unless you grant permission otherwise). We certainly have space, however, to use the text "(CC 3.0) Adam E. Moreira" as the photo credit.

Please let me know if that is acceptable.

Thanks,

Bobby Zacharias rzacharias@lsc.org 201 253 1239
