Elevators

You might want to check if access to the platform by elevator is possible 20180520 104209.JPG Leuven

Belgium

Belgian trains in theory have bike compartments. 20180521 084902.jpg

Since some of the trains are very long and the conductors sometimes need to have to open up the compartments you might still end up transporting your bike in a different way. 20180520 133033.jpg 20180520 133041.jpg

Eurostar

see https://www.eurostar.com/rw-en/travel-info/travel-planning/luggage/bikes you need to make a reservation for your bikes with Eurodispatch and then bring your bikes to the luggage counter and pick them up at the other end of your connection. E.g. going from Brussels to London you bring your bikes to the counter at Brussels Midi (see pictures) below and pick them up at London St. Pancras International.

German Regional Trains

Some german regional trains have bike compartments with plenty of space for bikes. No reservation is required. On some routes that are favored by bicyclist the spaces might be used up in summer especially on weekends. 20180520 120816.jpg
