Your suggested location of a train on the KC line sounds good to me. As for the business car, obviously not car 1 because of the absence of the silver stripes above and below window, and the end platform railing is closed rather than the open grill work of car 1. Car 8 had three or four larger windows on each side, and these windows appear smaller, so more likely one of the T&P cars, #9 or #10. Car 9 was off the roster by the time of Amtrak, so my guess is car 10.
