We recommend that you reserve a bike space whenever you are given the choice.
How to reserve a space
You can make a reservation at any time before your train arrives but spaces are limited, so you should do this as early as you can:
- in the booking section of your online account at https://myaccount.gwr.com/MyAccount/SignIn
- when you book your tickets online
- by calling 0345 7000 125 (08:00 to 20:00 daily)
- at your local staffed ticket office
