Passenger Trains > Sleeper car questionDate: 04/23/15 13:03 Sleeper car question Author: zfan I'm riding the #6 to Denver this weekend. Is it true they've cut back on service and there's no ice provided anymore? Thanks in advance.

SCAs are not supposed to put ice out any more but many do anyway because it's a pain in everyone's ass to fetch it from the cafe car or diner. If you can find your SCA, she will probably be happy to fetch ice. If you can't find him, you can get it from the same cars yourself. If late and cafe car is closed, with luck you can find the ice for yourself in the diner.

As is the water. I did have to hunt that down between the sleepers and that was annoying. Unfortunately I have to drink a ton of water due to a kidney problem....

Please don't give Rep Mica new ideas to pursue :P Date: 04/24/15 09:55 Re: Sleeper car question Author: chendermi Is the removal of the ice chest from the sleepers a health issue or cost issue? Seemed like it could be a problem to have an open container of ice into which anybody could dip a dirty container.

Date: 04/24/15 17:59 Re: Sleeper car question Author: Technology-Jeske When they did have ice (opposite the stairwell) they were very picky as to ensure the proper health codes rules were followed, for good reason... I.E -- not putting the metal scooper in the box with the ice when done with it.
There was no ice last week from STL>DAL, and I doubt there will be any from DAL>LAX tomorrow. I'll have a 12 pack of Shiner and I sure wish there was ice to keep it cold. Posted from iPhone |
