Hello,

Anyone got any recommendations?

I need cover for my bike whilst it's in the luggage compartment or sat near the doors of the train. Technically unattended.

Thanks
Keith

    Can't help you there. But I would still use a coiled lock to secure it to a handrail/post/seat.

  • Speak to your insurance company? The situation is no different really to a suitcase a passenger has brought on but is perhaps out of sight in the luggage storage at the end of the carriage. Would that also not be covered by insurance as unattended?

    Check to see if it's covered by your house insurance.
