This site rebroadcasts land mobile channels off the air in the vicinity of Lafayette, Indiana. All legacy channels 7-97 are in use in Chicago and northern Indiana. 95% is still analog, although there are some digital repeaters starting to be installed on a couple of channels (seldom used for digital so far, and seem to have analog CW identification). The time zone between eastern and central time runs through the coverage area, so there may be an hour time difference confusion with what you hear. AMTRAK CARDINAL PASSENGER TRAIN COMES THROUGH NORTHBOUND IN THE MORNING THREE DAYS A WEEK AND SOUTHBOUND IN THE EVENING. IN 2022 THE PATTERN HAS BEEN FOR 51 TO BRING EXTRA EQUIPMENT FROM BEECH GROVE SHOP OCCASIONALLY NORTHBOUND TO CHICAGO ON MONDAY MORNING, AND TO ATTACH SOUTHBOUND ON SATURDAY. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERY WEEK AS IN THE PAST. YOU CAN TELL WHETHER THERE IS EXTRA EQUIPMENT BY LISTENING TO THE AXLE COUNT DETECTOR. NORFOLK SOUTHERN NS 50 Lafayette District Road and Decatur Dispatcher (former Wabash) Coverage area is on the main line Lafayette-Dayton-Delphi-Logansport also some Frankfort Branch and Yard activities. There are two detectors on the main line in the vicinity of Delphi. Normally they only announce "no defects."
At West Peru, the Huntington District Dispatcher takes over on channel 18 (923). At Frankfort, the Frankfort Branch changes over to the old main channel, 22. There is a good bit of switching activity in the Lafayette area, both on the north side, and down by Subaru on the south end connecting to Dayton and Frankfort yard. CSX MONON SUBDIVISION LAFAYETTE, MONON, RENSSELAER
Channel 84 is the road channel. This is still the route of the Amtrak Cardinal passenger train. Dispatcher channel 12 is usually on the scan, depending upon traffic. The Magnetation facility at Reynolds is defunct and reportedly will be demolished. It only operated for a year or two, after CSX put in extensive improvents that turned out to be a waste. There are low power detectors at Pleasant Ridge and Battle Ground that are seldom heard, and ab axle count detector between Reynolds and Monon that is generally pretty reliably heard. PTC went active on the Monon Subdivision in October 2018. There is still a yard office in Lafayette that talks to crews. There is a yard office in Monon that sometimes is staffed, and still a switcher is maintained there. Effective January 18, 2018 the Elkhart & Western Railroad acquired the Monticello Branch, between Monon and Monticello. There is one customer remaining on that line. The spur from Monon to Francisville continues to be CSX-owned and maintained. TP&W interchanges with CSX at Reynolds, usually with trains from the west, and from time to time may talk to the CSX dispatcher in order to get permission to move between Reynolds and Lafayette. To the east of Reynolds there is very little activity, usually only one local run per week, typically on Tuesdays.
