Summary

Non-free media information and use rationale – non-free logo true for Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway
Description	This is the logo owned by unknown (possibly British Rail, but unconfirmed) for Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway. It is a historical logo. Its historical usage is as follows: Was used historically for Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway promotional material while the railway was in existence. Further details: Crest of the Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway.
Source	The logo may be obtained from unknown (possibly British Rail, but unconfirmed).
Article	Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway
Portion used	The entire logo is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image.
Low resolution?	The logo is of a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the company or organization, without being unnecessarily high resolution.
Purpose of use	The image is used to identify the organization Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway, a subject of public interest. The significance of the logo is to help the reader identify the organization, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the organization, and illustrate the organization's intended branding message in a way that words alone could not convey. There is commentary in the article about the logo itself as follows: "Hand-drawn reproduction by DBailey635 of original crest, sourced from photograph"
Replaceable?	Because it is a non-free logo, there is almost certainly no free representation. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary.
Other information	Use of the logo in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy, logo guidelines, and fair use under United States copyright law as described above.
