Which, as I've posted elsewhere, is a massive over-reaction, and will
nicely stuff up the journeys of anyone who relies on train+bike

Given that bikes are carried free, the railway companies can do
as they please.

Indeed, but they can lose out on a passenger's long-term rail use, which
might or might not make good business sense...

....Some of us want to remain car-free, but once tempted into car
ownership, might make very few railway journeys.
