  1. There's often some space at the ends of the carriages, but this depends on which route and which type of rolling stock. Where seats are arranged back-to-back, there's also some space between the seat backs into which you can slide luggage if it's not too bulky.

     

    Otherwise, it's a question of improvisation. If the train isn't busy, you can sometimes use floor space that has the effect of blocking off one or more seats. Nobody minds if the train isn't full. Just try not to block the aisles.

     

    Thanks for the information. It's just the kind of details I like to know; we just don't do the train travel as in Europe.

  2. The train is easy if you don't have a heap of luggage. There is no one to help you with luggage so you have to get it on and off the train on your own and you can't block the aisles or doors with it.

     

    My husband is not allowed to carry luggage so we are limited to what this old wife can manage on her own and do.

     

    What would classify as "heaps" of luggage? We are family of four each with our own suitcase and a carryon (backpack). We try not to take more than we can each handle. We would love to take the train and see the countryside.
