Berea Frequencies

[wrawroacx]

Can I use the frequency 160.860 for the CSX Mainline through Berea Ohio or is something else? What’s the frequency for the NS mainline through Berea?

[wrawroacx]

This is the last frequency question I’m going ask unless I go on a trip somewhere far. Can someone please just ask me this last question I want to be anwsered. Can I use 160.860 for the Mainline through Berea Ohio and what’s the NS mainline frequency through Berea Ohio also.

I don’t know the specific answer, but channels in use tend to run over long stretches of track - if you have adjacent frequencies, you’re probably all set.

I’ll be on the phone tonight with Rich. I’ll tell him you are asking.

Google is a wonderful thing. Here’s what I got when I searched for “Berea Frequencies:”

These are the radio frequencies for your scanner while at Berea:

• CSX “IG” Dispatcher - Berea-Greenwich - 160.485

• CSX “IG” Dispatcher - Berea-Greenwich - 160.860

  • � In 2/09, CSX reassigned the Columbus Line from Berea to Greenwich from the “IF” dispatcher to the “IG” dispatcher (who also controls the Short Line to Collinwood), but this expanded territory retains the former “IF” frequencies.

• CSX Columbia Detector - 160.860 (A little difficult to hear)

• CSX “IG” Dispatcher - Berea-Collinwood - 160.800

• CSX “IG” Dispatcher - Collinwood - 160.995

• NS Cleveland Terminal Dispatcher - 161.070

• NS Rockport Yardmasters - 161.070 and 160.350

• NS Toledo East Dispatcher - 160.980

• NS Olmsted Falls Detector - 160.980 (Quite difficult to hear)

Enjoy.

See now, that’s the neat part about a scanner - you can just put all of them in!

Somebody please anwser these two questions above I asked. It’s that easy. Just anwser them. I told you people all I want is this questioned to be anwsered and then I’ll go away for ahwhile on this matter. Not blaming you tree68, not your fault. Just somebody anwser it. I’m trying not to get angry but when your counting on something you asked to a person they should anwser you right away. Not counting the people that don’t know. I’m counting on the people that do know this matter and please anwser it above. Thanks Again![:(!]

160.860 is the road channel which crews call signals on. I am unsure of 160.485, but if it is the channel you hear the IG dispatcher on, and all you want to hear are crews calling signals, don’t program it in. 160.800 is also used in this area, as you know. It too, is a dispatcher channel. I believe it is also used as the yard channel, but I’m not sure.

Thanks Rich, that’s a big help. At least you told me and like other people they won’t anwser the question. When ask something, that person should do it or tell you it. I don’t mean in a mean way either but when counting on someone to anwser this question you wait and wait and if no anwser you start getting angry. I’m not mad anymore now I know and this post dosen’t have to be anwsered anymore. Thanks Rich.
