Long standing chatters will recall various attempts by rail companies to require folding bikes to be kept folded on the station in what is described as a "fold and carry" policy.
London Midland tried this on in 2008 and were seen off by a strong protest. I retain an email confirming their apologetic retraction of a "fold & carry" policy at Milton Keynes and other stations. Unfortunately posters requiring users to keep folding bikes folded on stations have recently re-appeared at Euston and Milton Keynes.
I have written to LM asking whether they have resiled from the assurances given last year about this misguided policy. A reply is awaited.
In the meantime please use this thread to exchange views.
