The "Aleutian" office car was purchased from Copper River & Northwestern RR.
A history of the connection is on page 49 of Bulletin 25 - Office Cars.

Some research would be warranted..it may be likely that the CB&Q management
had some involvement in building the Alaska Railroad or predecessors.  Or it
may just be that some official liked to hunt or fish up there.

them.
