Towels on Sleeper Cars

My wife and I have a Romette on the California Zephyr a few weeks from now.

Are Towels for showering in sleeping cars provided? or should we bring our own?

They are provided.

Hand towels and wash cloths are provided and usually found in the closet. Large shower towels are located either in the shower room or on the luggage rack.

Soft and fluffy as you've ever seen.

There are plenty of towels for showers - usually kept in the shower room, in the dressing area. Sometimes I've seen them stored in the lower level luggage rack on Superliners. If you don't see any around, ask your attendant.

There are stacks of clean towels and a bag/sack for dirty/used towels available.

Thanks everyone for your answers! I'm looking forward to a soft and fluffy trip!

As Amtrak climate control often leaves much to be desired, the smaller hand towels and wash cloths also come in handy for stuffing into the air vents.

Tip: If I'm planning on taking a shower, I'll always make sure that I have two towels on hand, as on rare occasions, I've found the clean supply has been exhausted when I've entered the shower room.

That's why I say check before your enter and if necessary ask your car attendant for more towels. With that, I've never had a problem!
