Which, as I've posted elsewhere, is a massive over-reaction, and will
nicely stuff up the journeys of anyone who relies on train+bike


Given that bikes are carried free, the railway companies can do
as they please.



They've realised that they can't charge for the 'service' they now deign
to provide, given that they've lumped cyclists into the group marked
non-frequent users who are generally stuffed.
