Built in 1948 for the Milwaukee Road's Olympian Hiawatha, MILW Skytop Sleeper-Parlor-Observation Car 15, Coffee Creek, was sold to the Canadian National in 1964. CN renumbered it 1902 (and renamed it Fundy) and placed it in service on their Super Continental train until the mid-70s. This car was then sold, and resold, several times, ending up on Iowa Pacific Holding Company's San Luis & Rio Grande (which renumbered it SLRG 3311). It sat in the SLRG's shop in Alamosa CO for years, with a fair amount of restoration work being performed. In the Iowa Pacific bankruptcy was acquired by North Carolina's Aberdeen Carolina & Western. The car was seen heading out of Denver on July 12, 2022, on its way to the ACWR. (UP's Bailey Yard, North Platte, Nebraska – July 15, 2022)
