[QUOTE]Originally posted by smitty195: [QB] In addition to what train lady says about bringing safety pins to close the curtains completely, I also suggest duct tape. The curtains on your bedroom/roomette/whatever door have velcro on the curtain so that you can close them on the other side with the matching piece of velcro. Unfortunately, these velcro piece almost never match up (or are missing entirely). So to have privacy when the curtain is closed, you will need the tape to hold the curtains closed. I remember when they used to play music in the Superliner sleeping cars. There was a multi-track tape machine downstairs in the electrical cabinet (across from the luggage rack) where there were (I think) three different audio channels. Unfortunately, that music never played smoothly---it always sounded like a reel-to-reel Marlin Perkins movie that I used to watch in grade school. The only thing the audio control does now is adjust the volume of the PA, or turn it off completely. Some of the newer refurbished Superliner I sleepers have NO audio control in the room, and the speaker is turned up full blast. If you're on the California Zephyr from the Bay Area to Reno, you have to listen to that God-awful sightseeing stuff that the volunteers read the whole way up there. It blasts in your ear for HOURS and there's no way to turn it off. [/QB][/QUOTE]
