Blue cobalt ceramic ash trays (most manufactured by Hall China) were standard for years in dining cars and probably the table area of lounge cars. Smoking stands were used in the lounge/parlor end of these cars. The clear ash trays may have appeared in the 1950s or early 1960s, but I haven’t seen any interior photos from that period to verify how or whether they were marked. Most likely those used in the mid-late 1960s were unmarked glass.
