Luggage
Please ensure you are familiar with our luggage allowances before travelling:
- Each passenger (aged 5 years or more) may take 3 medium sized items onto a train free of charge.
- Medium sized items are considered to be those with dimensions not exceeding 90 x 70 x 30 cm with a weight not exceeding 50kg.
- Only 2 of these items may exceed 55 x 40 x 20 cm.

Please note oversized and extra luggage may be charged.
Extra luggage is classed as:
- each item in excess of the free allowance (as shown above),
- any item with dimensions exceeding 90 x 70 x 30 cm.
Oversized luggage may be refused in passenger accommodation if:
- the items would obstruct doorways, gangways or corridors,
- the dimension of the item exceeds 100 x 100 x 100 cm,
- in the opinion of our staff, the item is only suitable to be conveyed in the luggage van.
Keeping your luggage safe:
- All luggage stowed in the drive or guard's van must be labelled with the customer's name, address, contact number and destination station.
- East Coast strongly advises that when travelling at peak times, any luggage stored on-board is labelled with the same information.
- Unless checked in to the guard's van, all luggage must remain in the customer's sight.
- Luggage must be stowed in the luggage racks, overhead luggage racks and under seats.
- Doors, gangways and corridors must be kept clear.
- Pushchairs must be folded down and treated as luggage.
