I realize this isn’t the information you are looking for, but until you can unearth hard data, it would be accurate to run D&RGW/SP unit coal trains, grain train, autoparts trains and mixed manifests. This was not a heavily trafficked line in the 1980s Almost all trains were run as needed. For example, during harvest you’d expect there to be unit grain extras along with smaller trains serving the branch elevators. Seems to me that any prototype cars with build and repack date from 1975-1983 would be appropriate for a 1983 layout. Looking t industries along the line in the 1970-80s era might be helpful deciding on local trains. Jerry
