Bikes on Cross Country Trains

Taking bikes on East Midlands' trains turned out to be a doddle compared to Cross Country, who provide the most appalling bike hangers. Theoretically their trains hold four bikes but the spaces are so poorly designed that hanging even a single bike is a test of dexterity, endurance and strength; hanging two side-by-side is damn near impossible.

And if you had a non-standard bike or you lacked upper body strength you're stuffed.

Overall: 3/10, very poor, must improve.
