Is there a schematic map of passenger rail in the US and Canada?

Does anyone happen to know if there is a good schematic map of passenger rail services in the US and Canada, showing local systems as well as longer distance services with Amtrak and VIA etc?

Years ago I bought a paper map like that for Australia - obviously a much easier map to produce - but it's crossed my mind that I don't think I've ever seen anything similar for the US.

Despite the decline of passenger rail there are quite a lot of local operations now but unlike in Europe it's all somewhat disjointed and it would be interesting to see an overview of what exists.

While searching I came across https://www.transit.land/ which is fantastic and I don't know why I haven't come across it before.
But isn't quite what I'm looking for here.

I am not sure about anything official, but if you look on Reddit (on r/TransitDiagrams) there are some quite good ones created and submitted by users.

I'm fairly sure there isn't anything official (given that the whole "system" is fragmented I'm not sure what organisation would produce such a thing).

And I have indeed looked for amateur efforts on Reddit and elsewhere, but failed to find what I'm looking for.
