[QUOTE]Originally posted by John B. Bredin: [QB] "If you have a standard one...is the community bathroom nearby and is it kept clean during the whole trip? Does it have a shower or just a sink? Does amtrak provide towels etc?" There's a single common washroom on the upper level of a sleeper car and three (I think) on the lower level. These are all strictly washrooms -- sink and toilet. The shower is a separate unit on the lower level, which makes sense because you're only waiting for people to finish their shower, not using the toilet, brushing teeth, etc.. Towels *are* provided by Amtrak in the shower. Personally, I've never had a dirty washroom problem when I've been on Amtrak. A little water on the sink, but nothing too bad and nothing disgusting. However, I don't think they routinely clean the washrooms along the way -- there's a sign in each washroom and the shower reminding the passengers to clean up after themselves. I've never ridden in a deluxe compartment, but people I know who have say having a private washroom is great but the common shower is more roomy and more like a "real" shower at home than showering sitting on the toilet in a deluxe compartment's bathroom.
