I like trains, but the two bikes rule on Southern Trains is wearing me out. Most guards are pretty good and let everyone get on, even in the non bike carriages. A couple of guards have been a bit discouraging, like when three of us were arranging our bikes together he said 'they're great ideas these things, but totally impractical'. He was actually referring to bikes, not the bike compartments on trains. And a guard this morning shouted at teenager that 'the bike compartments the next one down' even though it was full and the norm is to get on at the least busy carriage.
