*Notice there was no Lounge. *When I go on a trip by train long distance I look to see a lounge on there.

I'm sorry that happened. It's one of the nicest and most fun cars on the train to spend the day in. Amtrak should start getting 'some' of the 90 or so wrecked Superliners out of the Grove soon, and I believe that the Eagle has its Lounge back now (can someone verify?)

From the latest info I have, there are about 5-6 lounges still at Beach Grove awaiting repairs.
#'s of lounges still unrepaired 33003 33009 33023 33030 33045(posible scrap)
Lounge 33017 is still at Beach Grove but went for refurbishments, not because of a wreck.
Hope this helps
If anyone notices that one of these lounges are running again, please let me know md038571@student.fullerton.edu

Yes, in my most recent employee newsletter, it was mentioned that 21/22 wouldn't be carrying a lounge until there are more of them available. Now that Beech Grove is back in action, I imagine that will get changed back soon.

That's a shame. I've ridden on the Texas Eagle. Hopefully, they'll be able to get the Lounge car repaired soon.

Is there any place on the train to buy food besides the diner, like a snack coach?
