[QUOTE]Originally posted by sojourner: [QB] On the Lakeshore Ltd I took back from Chicago a few days ago, there were 2 sleepers, then a dining car, then 2 or 3 more coach cars all heading to NYC while a lounge/snack car (for those of you familiar only with Superliners, I am speaking only of the one-level regular Viewliner lounge/snack car) with I believe just passenger car adjoining it (and a luggage car? sorry I forgot to look) were delinked at the 'Y' just before entering the Albany Rensselaer station and heading to Boston. After they delinked, the Boston "shuttle" pulled into the station on a different track from the NYC-bound LSL; Boston-bound passengers in sleepers (or the NYC coaches, if there were any there--I was up by sleepers and did not see) got off in the Albany-Rensselaer station and crossed the tracks to board the Boston-bound "shuttle." More than one Amtrak employee on the LSL told me that a Boston-sleeper was going to be added probably some time in April, which would be part of the delinked cars sent on to Boston too!!! I did not ask about this, but given the equipment shortage, I wondered afterward--assuming they are really reinstating the Boston sleeperas I was told--if the sleeper service might perhaps be seasonal, taken off a Florida sleeper for the warmer season, when the LSL is busier and trains to FL are less busy.
