[QUOTE]Originally posted by Gilbert B Norman: [QB] From Crowne Plaza Ravinia Atlanta-- Here is a Railway Age column regarding this "enhancement" of cold meal plates: https://www.railwayage.com/passenger/intercity/want-airline-food-take-amtrak/ Fair Use: [i][list] [*]Ex-Florida Congressman John Luigi Mica, a foodie who spent a considerable amount of time when he was Chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee questioning Amtrak’s food service costs, must be very pleased with Amtrak’s announcement that it’s getting rid of dining cars on two long-distance trains. Yes, you heard me right, and I believe it’s part of a plan to dismantle the National Network—shutting down most, if not all, long-distance trains, to focus on the Northeast Corridor, Midwest (Chicago) and California short- and medium-distance services, and state-supported trains. More on that later. This morning (April 19), I received a press release with the following headline: New and Contemporary Dining Soon on Two Amtrak Routes. Capitol Limited and Lake Shore Limited sleeping car customers to be offered fresh choices for meals this summer. Right away, I smelled corporate-speak rotten fish. Read on.. [/i] [/list] I suppose the rest will not be far behind - including Auto-Train. I just may have made my last overnight Amtrak trip. [/QB][/QUOTE]
