Amtrak feels that tray meals will be acceptable for this Fla - NY run so the diner will not be on this train, nor will a sleeper. Must be an "AMFLIGHT" train

I presume you are living on the Seaboard route in the Northwestern part of Florida. The Silver Palm lost its sleeper and diner as of the latest schedule change. There are extreme equipment shortages and in order to take superliner equipment from the Cardinal they took sleepers off the Silver Palm and Twilight Shoreliner and the diner off the former (the later lost its diner a year ago).
