Have you tried scanning the allocated frequencies to railroads yet?
I did a quick lookup for you on all frequencies here at the FCC for Cherokee County NC .. but did not see anything special.

They are on UHF because I have rode GSMR my times and they have always been on UHF because the guy that started it had a fuel oil business or something like that. I never looked it up them because I use had always used VHF equipment and now I have VHF and UHF.

>> I could not find any FCC license for GSMR.
Time to scratch your memory. The license may be under the name of the person owning / operating the railroad, or under the business names he might use (the fuel company, a corporation business name, etc.).
He might also be operating without a license, using a low-power UHF channel, or operating unlicensed through an SMR repeater.

Someone on Trainorders.com give me 2 frequencies 461.575,463.250. If they lease their radios/frequency,that company is also not licensed for them ether.I did a search by frequency and state and the only license is for a commications company out of Asheville licensed for use in Robbinsville. When I go I'll have to take my laptop to play the numbers game with the pl's on my HT1250ls+ .

One of the transmitter sites is Joanna Bald on Snowbird Mtn and can be listed as either Andrews or Robbinsville, NC. The other site is near Sylva and both could be listed as any of the comm companies maintaining UHF community repeater sites in that area. AFAIK, private business repeaters is what they use. Sorry, don't have any freqs, though.
