ABOUT THIS FEED:
Flagstaff, Arizona, in Northern Arizona, is located on the BNSF Railway’s Seligman Subdivision at milepost 344.2. The Seligman Sub is part of their Southern Transcon, the former Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway (AT&SF) mainline between Chicago and Los Angeles.
Amtrak’s “Southwest Chief” passenger train stops here twice daily, as well as 50-70 daily BNSF freight trains. It’s a designated quiet zone, but the crew can use the horns at their discretion.
There is an ATCS layout available, with good server (data) coverage here in Flagstaff.
There is excellent radio coverage, from 3 different receive sites (antennas), one at Flagstaff and one each to the west (Williams) and east (Winslow):
