28(22) extra sleeper?

[CCC1007]

I was wondering why the above mentioned train had two sleepers, both of which appeared to be occupied...

The sleeper i came in on 27 yesterday was having major mechanical issues and was pulled out of service, so it may be being shipped back east.

We are presently on the Empire Builder going East, in then8 section. Train is delayed 2.5 hours. Lunch companions from the 28 section said the original sleeper car had no air conditioning . They pulled one up from reserves that apparently has no water. They have to go to the next car over to use the facilities.

This is starting to remind me of the early to mid 1970s.
