N&W 611 Trips: Manassas to Front Royal
Author: 611Doug

Hello all,
I am looking for confirmation on these radio frequencies for the NS "B-Line".

160.3800
160.9500

I'm not from the area and would like to ascertain whether these are the right frequencies for the area and when and where they should be used. TIA!

160.950 is main channel on B Line  Washington District Dispatcher
160.245 / 160.830  is second channel used on B Line
160.440 is H Line  Crewe Dispatcher  will use this at Riverton Jct

I think I will go on June 7 afternoon trip

Thank you for the help. Does that mean that the 160.3800 frequency is not needed for that line?

A lot of the trips show "no disembarking" which points to shorter trips with simpler logistics for NS.

I remember..back in the day. 4501 ran Alexandria to Front Royal. There was time for at least on runby and some time on the ground in Front Royal.  That didn't seem too complicated then.
