Also, if I can put my folder inside I can leave a space for someone else - see comment above about waiting an hour for the next bus.

I do not want to start a two week vacation with my daughter in tow and train schedule to keep only to step on the bus and be told that we cannot bring the bikes on.

I have had many bikes on the front and am familiar with that, but I do worry about it getting taken as well as damaged by other bikes. Had I not been at the station when another rider loaded his bike my Brooks saddle would have been ruined by his open ended steel handlebar that was hitting the saddle (i took out a multitool and raised my seat out of the way).

What I am interested in is getting an idea of which agency allows it so I can contact them and get their policy so that I can use it here with our transit agency. Always better to have an example to cite.
