Already sold out for this weekend and several other weekends this summer. Has the LIRR thought about expanding reserve service to other trains like the previous parlor car service?

My impression is they use bar carts on the Friday train in four cars that have space available for the carts. When these cars go back into regular service during the week the bar carts come out.
