Built in April 2000 as a coach/cafe car featuring coach seating on the upper level and a snack bar on the lower level, operating on Pacific Surfliner trains between Los Angeles & San Diego along with Surfliner trains operating from Los Angeles north to as far as San Luis Obispo. These cars when first built didn't have names but would begin to have names starting in 2008 as they were cycled through Beech Grove for maintenance with this car later being named "Rose Canyon".
