What is the policy for traveling with bicycles on Amtrak?

Asked a year ago
Amtrak welcomes bicycles on most of its trains, subject to availability and certain guidelines. To bring your bike onboard, you must reserve a space in advance and pay a fee. Bicycles are typically stored in the designated bike racks on Amtrak's specific trains, which may vary depending on the route. Folding bicycles are allowed on all trains, whereas non-folding bikes are only accepted on select routes. It is important to note that bicycles must be properly packed and presented at the station's designated check-in area. Additionally, Amtrak advises cyclists to bring their own bike locks for added security during travel. For detailed information and to make reservations, please consult Amtrak's website or contact their customer service.
