Operating costs were just too high and many clients wanted and expected larger rooms.

I was looking at the train and one of the crew asked if I'd like a quick tour. They were finishing up lunch and would be leaving soon. So I got a quick walk through of the front section. I think they said that they had servied Prime Rib for dinner the night before. I would love to have had a chance to ride.
