Vous voulez nous rejoindre en train avec votre vélo

  • Il est interdit de descendre un vélo du train à la gare centrale, vous devez descendre à la gare du Nord ou du Midi.
  • Un ticket d'un jour coute maintenant 8 euros et il n'y a plus de distinction de genre de vélo (tandem, vélo avec remorque, tous le même tarif) Site SNCB
  • Les trains les plus pratiques sont les voitures à 2 étages récentes : il y a un grand compartiment pour mettre les vélos. La plupart des autres trains disposent d'un compartiment plus ou moins grand pouvant contenir entre 3 et 10 vélos, sur les rames automotrices il peut y avoir plusieurs compartiments. Pour des exemples pratiques voici ce site : Vélo et train
  • Vous devrez toujours faire appel à l'accompagnateur du train pour charger le vélo.

Met de fiets op de trein

  • Het is verboden met de fiets af te stappen in Brussel Centraal, u dient dus af te stappen in Brussel Noord of Brussel Zuid.
  • Er bestaat een dagticket aan 8 Euro waarmee u om het even welke fiets (ook tandem of fiets met trailer) op de trein mee kan nemen
  • Het handigst zijn de nieuwere dubbeldektreinen, deze bevatten altijd een groot compartiment om fietsen te plaatsen. De meeste andere treinen hebben een klein of groot compartiment waar tussen de 3 en 10 passen en er kunnen meerdere van deze compartimenten zijn per trein. Meer info (in het Frans) vindt u op Vélo et train
  • U dient altijd de treinbegeleider vragen de fiets op te laden
