Who makes the railway and canal maps?

The railway maps are produced by me (Matthew) as a hobby, as is the website, so please bear with me if there are errors on the map or issues with the site as I try to produce updates. The Canal map is created by Chris Lowe who has kindly let me host his map. The Modern Rly layer is based on OpenStreetMap data.

What does the colour on the railway map mean?

For the UK railway map, the colour identifies the owning company pre-grouping (circa 1923). For the US railroad map, the colour identifies the company that built the line. I have had trouble identifying US builders and some of the UK lines, so let me know if there are errors.
