Transporting your bicycle: some useful tips

Things worth knowing

• Each passenger is allowed to transport one bicycle.
• Tandems and recumbent bikes must be accompanied by two paying passengers.
• Children’s and other bike trailers count as a bicycle, and require the purchase of a ticket. Bike trailers must be loaded unpacked.
• No cycling on the platforms! Please dismount and push your bike.
• Please note that you are not allowed to cycle over the train tracks.

Bicycle transport

• It pays to establish a routine for your loading operation. You might find it easier, for example, if one person deals with children and luggage while the over sees to getting the bikes loaded.
• The bikes and associated items carried must be of a weight and size that allows for their trouble-free loading and unloading. Bicycles and associated items must be loaded and unloaded by the passenger(s) concerned, without any outside assistance.
• Bicycles must not be loaded packed with luggage. Saddlebags and luggage must be removed in good time for loading.
• «Oxtails» and trailers must be detached from the towing bicycle.
• Passengers are not allowed into the baggage car during the journey.
• The transporting of own bicycles is not allowed for groups of ten or more passengers. Groups such as those travelling on school excursions are recommended to rent bicycles at their destination. For further information, please go to www.rentabike.ch or see the brochure entitled «Touring with a rented bicycle». If your group nevertheless wishes to travel with its own cycles, these should be checked in as luggage. We will then transport the cycles to any station with baggage-handling facilities.
