I was able to resolve the issue. It turns out that it is important to have
this little bit at the end of the input file even if you aren't plotting
anything. This fixed the problem and I was able to run trajcalc.

&userin
idotitle=1,titlecolor='def.foreground',
tacc=120,timezone=-7,iusdaylightrule=1,
iinittime=1,ifcsttime=1,ivalidtime=1,inearesth=0,
flmin=.09, frmax=.92, fbmin=.10, ftmax=.85,
ntextq=0,ntextcd=0,fcoffset=0.0,idotser=0,
idescriptive=1,icgmsplit=0,maxfld=10,itrajcalc=1,imakev5d=0,
ncarg_type="cgm"
/
&trajcalc
rtim=4,ctim=10,dtfile=3600.,dttraj=600.,vctraj='p',
xjtraj= 40,
yitraj= 40,
zktraj= 750,
ihydrometeor=0
