We are taking the CZ and CL east in December and am wondering type clothes are needed to be confertible.
Capitol Ltd., Trains #29/#30 between Washington and Chicago.Pardon my ignorance but , I know CZ is the Zephyr , but can't figure out what 'CL' stands for.
You don't have stuff like high-tech polyester clothing? Most people seem to have that these days. The important thing is that if you sweat in cold weather, the cotton will start getting cold quickly, since it loses most of its ability to insulate. Synthetics or wool are much better.Thanks for all the good information both on the train and upon arrival. Think I better head to the clothing store, living in So Cal I have a lot of cotton
I second that. I have one also and it works great for this Florida native/resident when traveling and at home if it gets chilly here.I highly recommend a Patagonia Down Sweater for on and off train use. Weighs in at about 11 oz, packs down to nothing, and is comfortable from 20 to 60 degrees F. Heck, sometimes I even wear it for sleeping if I get chilly. Very versatile for every aspect of travel.
Good to hear. That one item alone takes the place of needing to layer or anything. I wore shorts out to PDX last fall and used it daily. Especially appreciated walking around at the Whitefish stop.I second that.
