First 900 was destroyed in a wreck on the FW&D in 1928. With sale of 901 and the destruction of 900, the C&S found itself without a top-rate office car for its vice president and general manager. And as 1929 dawned, the road could ill afford to buy a new car from Pullman or AC&F. So the Q's Aurora shops came to the rescue, converting an old ( 1902 ) open platform parlor-lounge-observation car ( CB&Q 208, built as 301 and named IOWA ) into a new vice presidential car for Robert Rice. Completed in January 1930, the new car was assigned the number second 900 and remained through several upgradings as the principal C&S office car until 1967 when, with the discontinuance of passenger service on the C&S-FW&D, it was sold.
