Western Railroad Discussion > CP radio channel frequencies

Operating on the assumption that CP's designated radio channels don't match up with the AAR-designated channels (much like Conrail Road 1 = AAR 46), could somebody please translate the following list of CP's channels into either freqs or AAR channels? Thanks!

CP Channel No.
1 =
3 =
4 =
5 =
6 =
7 =
10 =
13 =
14 =
16 =
17 =
19 =
20 =
69 =
78 =

Please purchase a copy of the Canadian Trackside Guide. It's published by the Bytown Railway Society and can be found in many hobby stores in Canada.

The Canadian Trackside Guide has all the information you need. There are six pages of frequencies for CP listing which channels are in use in each yard/town/city CP operates.

You are correct that the AAR channel frequency differs from the CP channel.


CP Channel No.
1 = AAR 91 161.475
3 = AAR 21/91 160.425/161.475
4 = AAR 67 161.115
5 = AAR 81 161.325
6 = AAR 21/81 160.425/161.325
7 = AAR 95 161.535
10 = AAR 21/41 160.425/160.725
13 = AAR 71 161.175
14 = AAR 15/71 160.335/161.175
16 = AAR 77 161.265
17 = AAR 09/77 160.245/161.265
19 = AAR 93 161.505
20 = AAR 35/93 160.635/161.505
69 = AAR 27 160.515
78 = AAR 41 160.725

Thanks for the info, KG & cp1400. I'll certainly keep an eye out for the Guide during my trips north of the border.

I've found it in hobby shops all across Canada, a few visitiors centers, and I've gotten it by mail:

It isn't just Canadian either. It has timetables, radio frequencies, rosters, for the Canadian railroads that operate in the U.S.

Thanks for the link, JB; I'll fire off a check once I return from my trip this weekend.
