With regards to the LD Superliner routes…
With no Transition Sleeper, can the Conductor get to the baggage car and/or Engine?
I’d assume without a TS the baggage car cannot be accessed while in motion.
I’ve understood the TS sells roomettes 17 thru 24 to passengers and typically reserve 1-8 in front of the mid stairs for crew. If the trainset drops the TS do you see them typically “replacing” with another full sleeper or is it dropped altogether. If dropped, where do the non-SCA crew sleep?
If replaced, do they put the crew in Roomette’s and sell the Bedrooms to the passengers?
… just wondering… as I saw Southwest Chief #6 come thru Galesburg (YouTube) with no TS today.
