I think papers provided in sleepers is about as random as it gets. You dont know if, what, or when something might show up. Im not positive but I wouldnt be surprised if there was some sort of astrological component.To give an Amtrak answer - sometimes yes, sometimes no! I've had some SCA's give them to me, either in the room or while I was "stretching" at the "fresh air" stop or just walking thru. Other times, the SCA just put them by the coffee machine.
Then therere people like me who set the alarms dependably enough, but can also turn off multiple alarms without actually waking up. Some days it takes three separate alarms playing rather specific tunes in strategic locations to bring me back to life.In this day and age with all our electronic devices, if you need a wake up call and can't do it yourself, maybe you should never leave your residence.
