There are a number of news articles eg http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/ski/news/sleeper-train-service-to-french-ski-resorts-under-threat/ reporting that virtually all French sleeper services are under threat of being withdrawn.
The French Department of Transport has told SNCF to present proposals for reducing costs by July 1 2016, otherwise the services will be withdrawn. The Department of Transport state that each trip requires a subsidy of 100 per passenger journey.
