Channels 8, 14, and 94 are all you really need to railfan the Old Main Line
Subdivision (Northerly routing from Point of Rocks to Baltimore).  8 and 14
are the road channels, while 94 is the "working channel" that the
dispatcher will often have trains switch over to in order to receive EC-1
forms and other information.
