  • Hi everyone,

    Whats the deal with Omnium Cargo bikes and trains, any experiences? Are they allowed on?

    Specifically looking at the Mini-Max Wifi......want to it cart the dog around and also some touring, would love the option of hopping on a train with it too. Is it too big?

  • Took my Mini-Max with the fam on the train this Easter for some "touring". National line I should add, the suburban trains have a bike carriage.
    The bike as seen, with baby seat and 2 bikepacking bags (there's a handlebar one on the extension bar) was pretty heavy, so I needed help from another passenger to haul it onto the train. Negotiating the corner to the reserved space was a real challenge, as the passage was really narrow (because of guard room, toilets). The space itself was fine. The guard complained despite not really having anything to say, as we did not break any rules per se.
    On the way back (pic below) the space was right by the door, so much easier to hop on and off, although I still needed help. Guard was OK.
    All in all it was alright, but a bit stressful with a toddler, and I'm not sure we will do it again in the same circumstances.

    This was in Denmark, but it should give you an idea.
