Yup... Sounds about right to me. Now, if this is done appropriately I 
guess it could be acceptable occasionally... But if it's a habit...

Also, as others have suggested, I'd let the remaining and replacement 
characters have the Night Train be a constant thorn in their side. 
Ignore it for a few adventures (in part to give the new meat time to get 
up to speed and have everyone gain some experience and toys) then have 
it show up when it's really inconvenient!
