Adding on my source () and destination () stations, and it says I can't book a space on the outbound service (as far as I can tell, neither provider has reservations or restrictions on bikes).

    I will go to my local station tomorrow to see if they can sort it all out.

  7. And no, I'm not the only one who has ever thought about it....
    But as the intercontinentalrailway.com railway webpage states:
    "technological, geopolitical, and financial challenges thwarted its construction time and time again”

    It's such a shame, you know?
