When I was riding the Southwest Chief in the late 80's and early 90's we would occasionally get a former El-Cap coach or lounge and the the first car behind the MHC and baggage cars was an El-Cap coach modified into a crew dorm.
Until a couple years ago,the former El-Cap lounge cars were standard on the Starlight. Restricted, as I recall, to first class passengers.
