Great Western Railway asks passengers to bring 'sensible-sized' luggage this Christmas to avoid overcrowding and ensure clear aisles, exits, and seats on trains.

Christmas is one of the busiest times of the year for travel, and over the next week, millions will be trekking to loved ones around the UK with gifts and luggage in hand. However, one train company has asked its customers to carry airline-style bags rather than ‘super-sized’ suitcases when on its services this Christmas. Great Western Railway urged passengers to bring ‘sensible-sized’ suitcases to avoid overcrowding and ensure aisles, exits and seats remain clear.

With hoards of people flocking to the railways over the festive period, the train operator has asked passengers to ‘show a bit of Christmas spirit and consideration for others’. According to the National Rail Conditions of Travel, passengers are typically limited to three pieces of luggage, however GWR anticipates trains will be busier than usual for this time of year. A spokesperson said: ‘We’re seeing more and more people struggling on station stairways and trying to board trains with unwieldy, super-sized luggage, which can block aisles, exits and seats. ‘Instead, we’re asking them to consider bringing a standard-sized suitcase which fits comfortably in the boot of a car and can be stored in luggage racks at the end of a carriage, or, even better, a couple of pieces of cabin-style luggage which can be stored in overhead racks or under seats. ‘There’s plenty of space on board our trains for sensible-sized luggage and this is about offering help and guidance to customers.’ GWR asks passengers to ‘show a bit of consideration for others’ when travelling this Christmas. Passengers have frequently taken to social media to voice their frustrations about bulky luggage taking up space on UK train
