sleeper car question

[busboy]

I'm packing for a trip on the CZ. Do they provide towels for sleeper passengers in the showers or do I need to pack one?

 

[WhoozOn1st]

Shower towels are provided, usually stacked above the baggage storage area on the lower level. Or ask your sleeper attendant.

Yes. Everything is provided - towels, washclothes, soap - but not shampoo on the CZ.

Often times, he "misplaces" other things too!!

Bar soap provided, plenty, and towels on the A.T. were folded up, on a towel rack, IN the shower/bathroom, of my Superliner bedroom.

In a roomette they may be in your room, or more likely in a laundry bag (which many times is inappropriately placed on the seat in the shower changing-area) in the shower room.

Jerry's right~ the SCA's have a lot of hiding spots for the laundry bags; especially on Superliners. I usually give up and ask the LSA and sometimes they're even stashed in their room !!!

In my SS LTD Roomette in June of 2009 they had a wash cloth and large face towel in the roomette...the latter I thought was just a tiny bath towel but it worked. Later I found on the luggage racks were the bath towels.

Bar soap is supplied (ewww) :wacko: and I say Eww because my wonderful fellow passangers would leave their bar in the shower for the next person to use...YUGH! I do not recall shampoo. I may pick up a small size liquid soap and shampoo for my SWC in May from Chicago.

if you're staying in the deluxe bedroom on the Zephyr, showers are directly above the toilet in your own bathroom

Sorry, I left my mind somewhere, and forgot where I put it!

See what happens when I'm off a train for a WHOLE week!

Now I'll have to take a trip in 2 weeks to locate it. I go all the way to Texas to see if I can find it!

My mind is so empty that I'll go from KIN-BOS-CHI-FTW in COACH!

(It's serious!)

My experience is they stick that laundry bag on the shower room seat much more often than not.
