Amtrak blankets

ALL:

Does Amtrak sell their used blue or other color blankets? I assume they are not marked "AMTRAK" as Pullman did.

I think they are sold in the Amtrak Comfort Kit in the Amtrak Store at the below link but I am not 100% sure and you should probably call and ask if it is of the same quality.   Now the blanket sold is new but I think you give them some more cash they can have someone use it for you and then ship it. Big Smile

Thanks for informaton, but I am looking for an actual sleeping car blanket. Any suggestions in AMTRAK who can contact?

If it was me the next step I would take would be Email via Amtraks Contact Page (see link below) mark the subject "General Inquiries".    That should go to DC and get to the right person in charge at some point.

I just typed "Used Amtrak Blanket" into ebay's website and got several hits.  Check it out!  Most of them are marked pre-owned, but one of them is new.  The prices are in the $20 to $30 range.
