Union Pacific Peoria sub radio change.

[bnsfds-15]

Just to let everyone out there that railfan's around North Central Illinois that the Union
Pacific Railroad has changed the "road" channel for their ex-C&NW Peoria Sub line that
runs from Nelson Illinois[connection with the Chicago-Omaha main line] to South Pekin IL.
The New frequency in use is AAR Channel #7777 161.265 MHz. The Old frequency was
AAR#5252 160.890. This line is dispatched by UP's "Dispatcher 19" in Omaha, a.k.a.[simply] "Peoria Sub Dispatcher" by the more old fashion minded dispatchers.

I know one of the dispatchers that works desk 19. I'm pretty sure her territory only covers Cedar Rapids,Iowa to Missouri Valley,Iowa. However, I will confirm this with her.
