Practical Information for TRA Travelers

Luggage Guidelines on TRA Trains. Traveling on TRA services includes rules for carry-on and larger items. Below are key points to know when bringing luggage aboard regional and limited express services:

Luggage Allowance

Passengers may carry standard suitcases and backpacks. There is no strict piece limit on regional services, but items should be manageable by the passenger and stored safely in overhead racks or luggage areas.

Storage Facilities

TRA trains provide overhead racks and space at the end of cars for larger bags. Reserved-seat limited express services have clearer storage zones for suitcases and carry-on items.

Special Items

For bicycles, bulky sports equipment or musical instruments, check TRA policies in advance. Space is limited on regional trains and advance arrangements may be required.

Rail travel on TRA provides reliable city-center to city-center connections with frequent departures and simpler boarding compared with flights.
