Can't blame them, no real alternative.

At least that's understandable, other times they're afraid one of their trains is gonna get stuck in snow and that seldom happens, and when it does it's something very bad, not gonna go easy on Gardner and Co. until they're gone!

I hope they at least roll everyone who wants to go onto tomorrow's train. Sleeper space is alwsys sold out especially the bedrooms and family rooms.  My bet is they attach all the cars to tomorrows train. Say it's sold out and the crew dead heads back on the empty section with zero passengers. Hopefully we can find out the answer. I'm not trying to be an instigator it's an honest question.
