Birmingham Area Railroad Frequencies

[wwhitby]

Does anyone have a good list (or a URL for a list) of active railroad frequencies in Birmingham?

BTW, while I was at the outlet mall in Bessemer, I picked up 161.490 and 161.525. The PRO-96 indicated that both frequencies were digital.

Thanks,

Warren

I have these from someone else. They're listed by company rather than by state, though. Hope it helps.

So CSX has begun digital transition? Now I am really gonna save up for a digiscanner......

Also the list needs updated.... KCS Jackson Dispatch- 160.5450
Canadian National/Illinois Central Dispatch 1- 161.1900, 2- 160.9200

All analog currently.

Addition to the frequencies Warren listed as digital, I monitored the following frequencies using digital in November 2004: 161.535 and
161.265 (or 161.295 can't find my notes). All of the frequencies
appear to be repeater outputs. Also the locations mentioned sound like
these frequencies may be used at Norfolk Southern's Norris Yard. I maybe wrong (probably am) on the location.
