National Rail companies need to provide more space and easier access for travellers with bikes, buggies, wheelchairs and sports equipment.

Fiona Hall MEP recently met up with local Liberal Democrats and cycling campaigners at Darlington Railway Station. Fiona is campaigning for more space in trains for bikes, buggies, wheelchairs and sports equipment. The British Government is attempting to block EU proposals which would require train companies to provide more space for these items in their trains.
