I have a very old bag by Bach, its made from thin ripstop and has a bit of cordura at the bottom, its the right size for a bike with front wheel off. So its big and not that lightweight, but can be carried along.
But you still need straps and stuff to make the bike nicely packed, and the train bosses will probably only accept all wheels off, so even if you produce some plastic waste I would just go to a supermarket and buy cling film and go mad with that in future.

Aw man, no worries! I like doing these lil reports, they help consolidate and motivate future stuff for myself too.
@Zebra aye I was looking at a few heftier bags, but no way I'd have lugged those around. A friend since mentioned he keeps a bin liner and some zipties in his pocket just in case he needs a train in a pinch, kind of angry w myself that I didn't think of that. It's mad that there isn't a cheaper simple cover from some thin fabric, seems like it should be easy enough to sew together.
