Looking for an Antenna

[Esky]

I recently purchased a BC95xlt to use for monitoring railroad traffic and so far it seems to be functioning quite well. However, I'm looking to increase the reception by purchasing a better antenna. Admittedly, I don't know a whole lot about antenna's and am new to the scanner world. Is there an antenna that anyone might recommend to boost the 150-160 mhz frequencies? Thanks in advance.
