Finding Specific Railroad Frequencies

A great place to start is the Database for your particular area. Sometimes, there is not any information to be had and this is where it can be fun! Many scanners have a built-in search feature for different radio services, including railroads.

If you live in the USA you can find all the railroad licenses in your area with a visit to the FCC's website.

Select your state from the drop-down menu. Then select your county, or leave it on "All Counties". Be aware that large or populous states can return a long list of results, and it may take some time to appear.

On the Frequency line, enter 160.215 in "Begin" and 161.565 in "End".

Scroll to the bottom of the page and hit "Submit Query".

As always, be sure to submit any new information for inclusion in the RRDB!

If you don't find it here or in the database, feel free to post a message in the Railroad-Railfan Monitoring Forum on RadioReference.

Amtrak routes and frequencies can be found on the On Line On Track Amtrak page
