So I've read the last day of Rock Island operations was March 31 1980. But then there's this picture...

Which carries a date of 1983 and claims this is a lone movement to allow the estate of the Rock Island to perform a sweeper move and pick p cars in Arkansas. So I assume there were limited CR&P movements after the March 1980 date that would be considered "non-revenue" on behalf of the trustees?
