Are there space restrictions for folding bikes?
Folding bikes are allowed on any train car as they are no wider than 32 inches at the widest point. Folding bikes must be in the folded position prior to boarding and must remain under the control of the owner while on board. Folding bikes must be able to be stored under the seat in front of you or be placed in the luggage racks provided by Caltrain. Folding bikes may not be placed on seats and must not block aisles, stairs or vestibules. Folding bikes may not be stored in the space reserved for passengers in wheelchairs. Dirt or grease from folding bikes must not be transferred to the interior of the car, other passengers, or crew members. If the bike is dirty, it must be placed in a bag to prevent soiling of the rail car. It is at the conductors’ discretion to reject the boarding of a folding bike that they determine is not protected and appears to be greasy or dirty. Folding bikes that are not in the bike rack must remain folded until the passenger has fully left the train.
