ATCS Monitor for Windows
  Latest version is 3.7.5, dated 01/01/2008 

ATCS Monitor allows you to graphically monitor train traffic on railroads that use the Association of American Railroad's Advanced Train Control System (ATCS) Specification 200 protocol, Wabtec (ex-Rockwell Collins) Advanced Railroad Electronics System (ARES) protocol, Union Switch and Signal Genisys protocol, and Safetran Supervisory Control System (SCS-128) protocol. To use this program to receive traffic over-the-air, you'll need a scanner with discriminator output, and a Windows PC (running 95, 98, ME, NT 4.0, 2000, XP or Vista) with a sound card.
