K-Line ATSF 18" Alum - Solve the Mystery Car?

Wondering if any one has 4-Pac K-4630T and can tell me what the mystery car is?

I REALLY like K-Line Aluminum Passenger cars particularly the 18" Versions, Standard Height (not Hi-Level) with Shiny finish.  I saw web references to this set, It is the El Capitan but not Hi-Level.  I was starting to think it may have been cataloged but never actually produced.  While pricewise it may not be the holy grail of K-Line Passenger cars, it became mine.  It took me over a year before I found any available.  So snatched-up the 3 cars available which were K4630-31505 Diner, -33106 Chair Car, -33199 Observation.  Numbering is somewhat Lionel fashion, in that -31505 denotes car number 1505.  One problem it did not appear the 4th car in the set was available.  So can anyone solve the mystery and let me know what I am searching for.  It was cataloged in 2004 and the cars have the swinging lower skirting (wish they didn't, but it is what it is).

BTW this is NOT the more available K-4630C Super Chief 18" 4-Pac of 2000.  That set has silver painted roof and ends (but fixed lower skirting).  I was able to obtain that as a NIB set in the original shipper.

Thank you in advance to anyone that can help!
