We have received reports of musicians encountering problems when travelling with instruments on Lumo trains
We are currently looking into the baggage/instrument policies across the different train operators in order to try to address these issues
🧵👇
More issues with Lumo Trains - A cellist inquired about buying an extra seat for her cello and has been told that they cannot allow her to take her cello on their trains, even if she booked it a seat.
Musician's Answering Service (MAS) retweeted
WARNING: A client trying to board a Lumo train with a tuba was refused entry as it was considered too 'bulky'. This issue was not raised until the point he was about to board. Refusing to help him and parents with prams even when the British Transport Police intervened.
