> Any idea what role this car played?

The book, D&RGW NG Work/Box Outfit Cars, says this about #03679:

"The 03679, a 24-ft. car, was in service on 6/30/19 and retired on 11/30/23."

The book also mentions cars #03057, #03085 and #03131. All are listed as being in "Work Service" but the book states there is a photo showing #03057 being used as a Supply Car in 1954.

The vast majority of the book is devoted to the 4000 cars.

I hope this helps
