I'm going to be taking the Auto Train from Lorton to Sanford next month. What frequencies would I need to program into my scanner to listen to their communications during the trip? I assume Lorton and Sanford each have their own channels, what about communications between the train and dispatch?

That train will be switching to different road/dispatcher channels depending on the territory.
Here is what the terminal uses. you will have to search for the road channels for each state you will be in.
