This dataset is a subset of the NARN Rail Lines dataset that show the ownership and trackage rights for all passenger rail, Amtrak, commuter and tourist routes. It is derived from the North American Rail Network (NARN) Lines dataset, and for more information please consult, https://doi.org/10.21949/1519415. The NARN Rail Lines dataset is a database that provides ownership, trackage rights, type, passenger, STRACNET, and geographic reference for North America's railway system at 1:24,000 or better within the United States. The data set covers all 50 States, the District of Columbia, Mexico, and Canada. A data dictionary, or other source of attribute information, is accessible at https://doi.org/10.21949/1528950 North American Rail Network (NARN) can be used within the public, the federal government, rail industry, state DOTs, and academia for routing, mapping and analysis.

Users are advised to read the rest of the metadata record carefully for additional details. The North American Rail Network (NARN) dataset was filtered using the “PASSNGR” field to include any instances of "A" (Amtrak), "B" (Amtrak Commuter), "C" (Commuter), “D” (Alaska Railroad Passenger Service), or “T" (Tourism, museum, or science passenger). The North American Rail Network was created using the preexisting FRA network 1:100k, the FRA Automated Track Inspection Program (ATIP) data, and the data provided to NGA by ORNL. The source data of the spatial features was based on FRA’s ATIP foot by foot coordinates, where it existed, and the NGA/ORNL spatial content. data is updated as deemed necessary Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) GIS Office Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) GIS Program Manager 1200 New Jersey Ave. SE Washington DC 20590 United States FRAGIS@dot.gov party that accepts accountability and responsability for the data and ensures appropriate care and maintenance of the resource
