Per a post on train orders today 10/20, the Cap Ltd consists will have a combo Diner/Lounge (CCC) in place of the Regular Diner and Sightseer Lounge normally run on this route. This will be in effect until Nov. 20.
The claim is that due to the congestion on the NS Lines and the turn around of equipment in CHI from #29 to #30 that until the congestion has stopped, Amtrak put together a 3rd Train set for the Caps and they are short of Superliner Diners and Lounges, hence the CCC!
No mention of # of Sleepers or Coaches or any " temporary" schedule changes!
