    Anyone know if bikes currently not allowed on Wexford/Rosslare train? I was looking at a journey tomorrow from Rosslare to Arklow and every train has a symbol(below) saying "bikes not allowed". I checked forward multiple days (3 weeks!) and am seeing same on every train. An AI search is telling me sometimes IE change the configurations of trains so maybe it doesn't have a bike space carriage on it at the moment? Seems unlikely to me, but would rather not find myself stranded. Anyone use this regularly by any chance and know?

    are they all the commuter type trains and have no space? Unlikely they all are though

    Yeah any time I've taken it in the past it's been the model with 4 carriages where one has a double bike-space. In fact when I go to select my seat I can even see it laid out that way!

    Last year, all be it on a Saturday, took my bike on a commuter style train to Wexford - IE staff were aware of the bike booking and fine - turned out there were 3 bikes on the train - plenty of room for bikes

    Only allows two bikes to be booked even though there is now typically space for more. With the middle carriage having folding seats on over half of them. I used to commute daily on it and would have my bike pre booked for weeks. Always try to pre book as otherwise you are dependent on the inspector. Most will make it work. We often worked together and could fit 4.
