The scanner sounds like an idea to let me know a train is comming. I don't know anyone at UP so it is unlikly I could get a rooster or printout. Beside I figured the railroads had to publish a schedule of their trains I just had no idea where this would be if it even was available.

I live in Byers, CO next to the Kansas Pacific line from Denver to Topeka. UP came through and added signels to several sidings and spent last summer replacing ties, inproving grade crossings and replaced several siding switches. Since then there has been an increase in unit coal trains heading east and freights west. In the past couple of months there have been unit autorack trains with articulated autorack cars. The train times seem random but average about 5 - 8 a every 24 hours. I was hoping to find a schedule so I could be ready to take pictures.

Dear John,

Where do you get this information. I live next to a Union Pacifc line and would like to know at what time trains are due by and what they are. I've never been able to fine out this information? Is this something that is available?
