You didn’t miss anything. All we know what he heard about that one employee. Knowing Amtrak, it wouldn’t at all surprise me for them to ditch the chef on the CL, given recent trends. That said, until we get further info, I wouldn’t say this is by any means definite.Is there any confirmation that the Capitol is losing it’s chefs? Unless I missed it, seems it’s just hearsay from an Amtrak employee.
Nothing is definite, until it occurs...and even then, they may change it back. The reality of the situation is they have done this to the Capitol before. The Star is gone, the LSL's dining car doesn't seem like it is returning despite the fact there are plenty of new cars available and they are still looking to deflect criticism and cut costs.
It is not unreasonable to consider this action, particularly if the end to end travel isn't the bulk of your passengers.
