Utilizing newly installed luggage racks that convert to bike racks manufactured by Railplan International at their Baltimore Maryland facility.  Amtrak has expanded its Carry-on bike program, allowing customers to store their bike inside of the passenger coach in a designated space. In addition, Amtrak has worked with its various Northeast state partners to offer the program on its State-Supported trains. This includes working with the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) for Keystone Service, the Northern New England Passenger Rail Authority (NNEPRA) for Downeaster trains and the Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) for Amtrak Hartford Line trains beginning Tuesday, Sept. 15.

“Bringing your bicycle onboard a train is part of the journey, as it allows our customers to explore the cities they are visiting,” said Amtrak Executive Vice President, Chief Marketing and Commercial Officer Roger Harris. “To coincide with the increased popularity of biking in this country, we also wanted to provide our customers with the option of bringing their bike on more trains.”
