Let's hope they remember to include the sleeper (LOL); there's lots of trains out there right now that don't have them because of equipment problems.
work safe

Actually we pay for the meals with our sleeper accomodations. I can't imagine why they would not include meals with the sleepers, otherwise they would have to charge less and more would eat from the Cafe car instead.....
As of today at Amtrak site:
If you' re planning to spend more than a day aboard Amtrak, you'll be interested in our Sleeping Accommodations and the pull-out-all-stops service that comes with them. They're priced as an addition to your fare -- an affordable luxury when you consider that your Dining car meals are included. So you get transportation, lodging and food -- all for the price of one ticket.

Let's call this lack of info Amtrak may be cutting Dining Car Meals from sleeping car prices because Amtrak can't account for meal revenue in the Diner they will cut the prices to get more coach passengers from the lounge it also seems like an easy fix.
BUT THIS IS NOT CONFIRMED
I just wanted to warn you maybe it will happen I'm against it because then they take away they will lose sleeping car passengers becuase they get it because of the free meals and they took away the free soft drinks[B)][B)][B)]
