Vermont Rail System

  • Vermont Rail System is a family of railroads (Vermont Railway, Green Mountain Railway, Washington County Railroad,* Clarendon & Pittsford Railroad, and New York & Ogdensbug Railroad*) in Vermont and New York State that share the same radio system. HQ is in Burlington Vermont, with Dispatch services in Rutland Vermont.
  • The Washington County Railroad and New York & Ogdensburg Railroad generally contact Rutland dispatch via cell phone, and not the repeater system. They do use the yard switching channels.
  • Both repeater frequencies are patched together and carry identical traffic from various sites around the state. Repeater inputs are used to link them together.
  • VRS is also patched to/from the UHF OneVoice DMR Network
