"I'm contemplating another trip, one that will involve a sleeper on the Capitol Limited or Cardinal. However, I am a diabetic. There is no possible way I can eat anything of the sleeping car breakfast with the new menu as everything on it has loads of sugar. In the past, I would eat an omelet, skipping the potatoes and the bread. The new menu means I can't eat a breakfast I am paying for as part of my fare and Amtrak offers no alternative. Unless the breakfast comes with a vial of insulin, I would need a "diabetic menu". Do you intend to offer such things to your passengers or should I count on being dropped off at the nearest town where an ambulance can meet the train?"
