All,
Trains operate from West Quincy or Thomas Hill to Kansas City.
Unless there is someone still hanging on with a guarantee there
will be no Clerical employees there and they would not be called
"Operators" anyway. My "Where are there still Clerks?" resource
is at work but I'll ask later.
Right now there are 2 units, BNSF 2761 & EMDX 771 and 20 cars
physically present. Anything interesting? Nothing stored, all look
to be active. There is an air dump still lettered "NP 89132"
BN 961490 a MofW flat but it is ex NP 62923 and was built in 1968.
BN 972615, a Spreader is ex CB&Q 203842, built 01-Jun-48.
Waycar on hand is BN 12141 which is a 1977 BN purchase.
A 24 Hour Lineup as of this moment:

There is nothing sinister about the 3 switch engines on M-KCKGAL. Northtown
is just short right now and Argentine has a surplus. Looks like 3 through trains
in 24 hours and a local that is going to go out and then turn back in today.
