Pass an Input Comment to a Tracefield

Ok I forgot the code for this and what I looked up in the search has not worked thus far.

V3.7 MR3
9-12-9 Xcel
Shapre 32 Controller

I tried a couple different combinations but I could not get my input comment to pass to my tracefield.

Here is what I have tried

C1 = COMMENT/INPUT,YES,'ROUTE #'
TRACEFILED/NO_DISPLAY,LIMIT=15; : C1.INPUT

C1 = COMMENT/INPUT,YES,'ROUTE #'
TRACEFILED/NO_DISPLAY,LIMIT=15; : +C1.INPUT

I also tried passing the input comment to a variable then to the tracefiled.

C1 = COMMENT/INPUT,YES,'ROUTE #'
ASSIGN/V1, C1.INPUT
TRACEFILED/NO_DISPLAY,LIMIT=15; : V1

C1 = COMMENT/INPUT,YES,'ROUTE #'
ASSIGN/V1, C1.INPUT
TRACEFILED/NO_DISPLAY,LIMIT=15; : +V1

TIA

This works here at 3.7:

STATION_IN =COMMENT/INPUT,YES,'Station # '
            STATS/ON,DATAPAGE,$
            DIRECTORY=P:\DATAPAGE\GKN,$
            DIRECTORY=,$
            READ=20,WRITE=20,MEMPAGES=256,DIMENSION NAME,CONTROLCALC ON,$
            STATS/END
            TRACEFIELD/NO_DISPLAY,LIMIT=15 ; Station : STATION_IN.INPUT

The tracefield line must come after the stats on to "take" !
