Actually, it's an old CB&Q car which had GN paint and lettering for service on the Empire Builder. CB&Q contributed cars to this train as it ran over the Q from Minneapolis to Chicago. Still has it's original number, 1144, was a coffee shop/lounge/dorm named "Red Eagle Lake" - you can still see the "Red Eagle" lettering in your other pic. Built by Pullman in 1946.
