Eastern Railroad Discussion > Curfews, etc on the Pokey?

I was planning on doing a day trip this Friday to the Pokey and was
curious if anyone knew of any curfews, work, etc? My trip is already
in limbo now as they are calling for an 80% chance of rain there. :(
Also can someone share the scanner frequencies? Many thanks!

160.650, 161.190 and 161.250.. 161.250 seems the most active, most of the time I hear the Dispatcher giving track time to mow crews.. not to many head end calls..

Got them, thanks Bob! Now I just wish the forecast would change
for the better...

161.250 Portsmouth-OH - Delorme, WV , Christiansburg Dist. East of Bluefield
160.380 Delorme, WV-Iaeger, WV
160.650 Iaeger, WV-Bluefield
160.440 PD District
161.190 Buchanan/Dry Fork Branches
161.070 Williamson Yard

Only curfews/jam spots I know going on are near Prichard due to construction of an overpass for the new intermodal facility. They usually clear up around noon. Lots of MOW work going on which may leave only one main active in spots. Good Luck!

Thanks for all that bhager20, I really appreciate the help!
I guess I'll have to wait til the last minute and check the
radar to see if it's worth going or not...
