<p>They are not going to be eliminated. They will be, if they are not already, going to Beech Grove one at a time for major overhauls. Reportedly if a parlour car is not available for a particular run, a sightseer lounge will be substituted. </p><p>They are currently unstaffed, but sleeper attendants are providing some basic services. Amtrak is planning a "re-launch" of the Starlight sometime this coming Spring, at which time full staffing will return. To help pay for the attendant, sodas and snacks will no longer be complimentary, which is fine by me. Reports are that the downstairs theaters will be reopened showing classic MGM and Warneer Brothers movies, which are cheaper to acquire than newer movies. I can't confirm that detail, but it seems plausible. </p>
