Is there anybody out there in the Chicago area who has some frequencies
for the railroads there.  I am particularly interested in EJ&E, Burlington
Northern, and C&NW in the western suburbs.  When I bought my scanner, there
was an advertisement for Betty bearcat's guide.  Does anyone know if this is
as good as the Rail Scanner guide that I've seen advertised in Trains magazine?
