	NIOSH FACE Program: California Case Report 05CA004 \| CDC/NIOSH
		A 23-year-old Hispanic car wash attendant died when he was pulled into a side-arm rotating brush in a car wash. The victim was washing down the floor of the car wash tunnel with a hose.
		The site of the incident was a drive-through car wash. The car wash had a tunnel that cars and trucks were pulled through by a conveyor on the floor after the vehicle’s interior was thoroughly vacuumed and the exterior was pretreated.
		The car wash equipment in the tunnel was turned on and off by a push button mounted on the wall of the entrance and the exit of the tunnel (Exhibits 5 and 6).

	- Sleeping car Fires ?
		This was because of low manning levels in the sleeping cars, ie 1 attendant serving 2 or more cars, and problems with non sleeping car passengers gaining access to the cars.
		Some cars were leased to DSB and repainted in the dark blue Moon and Stars livery.
		In addition, the attendant in charge of the Plymouth portion of the train was not as alert as he should have been and might have been asleep.

	Worldandnation: Austrian cable car fire kills about 170
		Most of the victims apparently managed to escape the burning car but were killed by acrid smoke as they tried to flee by running upward on narrow stairs leading out of the tunnel, said Manfred Mueller, the head of cable car technical operations.
		But as the car was pulled through the long tunnel that burrows into the mountain, fire broke out, leaving it trapped 600 yards inside the tunnel.
		Also killed was the cable car attendant in an otherwise empty car that was going toward the valley as the one carrying the other victims was going up.

	Car attendant - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A car attendant is a railroad employee placed in charge of a single coach, sleeping car, or lounge car on a medium-to-long-distance passenger train.
		Lounge car attendants typically operate food and beverage service, sell souvenirs and other non-food items, operate onboard motion picture service, and keep tables clean.
		Full-service dining cars normally have a steward, supervising several waiters and a kitchen staff, rather than a single attendant; with the car attendants, these people form the onboard service crew, often supervised by a Chief of Onboard Services or "Train Boss," separate from and subordinate to the conductor.

	Amtrak Superliner Transition Sleeper
		They often inform the passengers in their car when they are turning in for the night and they then go to a room in the Transition Sleeper.
		There will almost always be a Car Attendant from one of the Sleeping Cars on duty during the night and be keeping his eye on the cars where the regular Car Attendant has turned in for the night.
		The Transition Sleeper is not usually placed next to private cars at the end of an Amtrak train so there is usually no way for private car passengers or crew to go between the private car and the rest of the train while the train is in motion.

	Amtrak Automat Food Service Car
		I know the idea of having this car on the train instead of a regular Cafe Car with a live Cafe Car Attendant is controversial, but my overall impression of this car was much better than I expected.
		The curtains are made of the same blue material used in the Superliner II Cars and in the Superliner I Cars that have been refurbished recently.
		The only lounge cars that I feel are superior to the layout of this car are the Pacific Parlour Cars on the Amtrak Coast Starlight and the Full-Length Dome Cars on the Amtrak San Diegans.

		We pick up the story on a day when I have an appointment and my car is being blocked by another car parked in the aisle.
		He got into his car, started it and called to me, "I owe you big time." Then he called out a four-digit number that I assumed was his extension at work.
		I mean, he blocks me; he breaks the One Rule in the lot by not handing in his key; it's 50 minutes until he gets to his car to move it; I miss my organ transplant; he doesn't say he's sorry; he just tosses off a number that may or may not be his extension.

	Parlour Car Richard Talmy
		This car has a full-time attendant, one each on the four train sets, who tends to the needs of the sleeping car passengers, making it a more pleasant trip than being in their sometimes cramped rooms for the 1389 miles (two days and a night) from Los Angeles to Seattle.
		Richard uses his own sound system in the center of the Parlour Car, which allows him to stand in the middle of the car (rather than use the microphone behind the bar at the end of the car) allowing him to see outside the car and give appropriate commentary as the sights pass by.
		While the train was moving slowly along the coast during Richard's talk, dolphins were sighted and all the parlour car guests moved to the ocean side of the car to press their noses to the windows.

	Trip Report: onboard Amtrak, arrival into Los Angeles on the Sunset Limited
		Monday evening our car attendant brings us a stack of fresh towels and we prepare for our evening shower, but discover that the shower light has malfunctioned, as has the razor outlet over the sink.
		Our attendant guessed that the entire truck assembly should be replaced in LA before the car returns to Chicago.
		Our car attendant agrees that when the train arrives on time at 6:15, it is hard to get sleepy passengers detrained, and hard to get the end-of-the-trip work he has to do (such as collecting towels and linens) accomplished.

		Being a coach fare, I was not allowed to the dining car, even though it states on the website you can pay for food (first class sleeper passengers have this included in their rail fare).
		Lunch was quite good as well; Julie, my car attendant notified us with a quick knock on your room door and one by one we all staggered into the dining car for lunch.

		When a driver calls for his car, the attendant pushes a console button and the wheel brings platform and car down to ground level.
		The elevators take cars below to be stored on circular levels, each of which is really a turntable that rotates until an empty space comes to the elevator.
