      Robert Kaplan was on hand at Jefferson City in April 1982 to witness this eastbound freight changing crews and performing some switching. Then new B30-7A locos were assigned in sets of 3 to KC-St Louis-Chicago corridor trains CKZ, CSK, KSC, BKG, SKB and SC. A lot of great details to see here.

      Can anyone tell me what the silver things are on the concrete platform between the two tracks in front of the depot?

        The “silver things” in the first photo look like water stations to me – used to be fairly common at stations where passenger trains were watered.
