Heartland Flyer Hi-levels

Has anyone seen Amtrak's ex ATSF Hi-Level coaches that were taken out of service a few months ago on the Heartland Flyer?

If they were taken out service, then they are most likely in storage.

I like riding the high levels, and this would make a day trip to Galesburg even better.
