OAKLAND, Calif. - Amtrak riders headed toward Sacramento will be offered a new relaxing amenity — dollar-a-minute neck and shoulder massages. Passengers interested in rub downs will sit in special massage chairs in the lower level of one of the cars.

Knock twice and tell 'em Johnny sent you!

Hmmm ... KA6BGJ posted below that this service would also be on the Capitol. I wonder if it is systemwide?

The train mentioned in the article (#538) is the Capitol.

Ahhh ... looks like Amtrak has created an ambiguity with similar names. The Capitol Limited is the only named train, running Chicago/New York Daily.

The Massage Train is train #538, one of many trains on the Capitol Corridor in California.
