Practical Information for TRA Travelers

Luggage Guidelines on TRA and HSR Trains. Rules differ between TRA local services and Taiwan High Speed Rail; below are key points to know when bringing luggage aboard regional trains and HSR services.

Luggage Allowance

Passengers may bring carry-on bags and larger suitcases. For HSR, standard guidance allows two pieces of luggage with reasonable dimensions; for TRA, check local limits as some services restrict very large items. Always keep essential items with you.

Storage Facilities

HSR trains provide overhead racks and designated luggage areas near car doors. TRA trains include overhead shelves and limited space at carriage ends for larger cases; use the provided storage zones to stow baggage during the journey.

Special Items

For bicycles, musical instruments or oversized sports equipment, contact the operator in advance. Space for special items is limited on TRA and HSR services and may require advance arrangement or specific packing.

Rating

Rail services combine city-center station access with predictable travel times and frequent departures compared with intercity buses and flights. Buses run direct but require longer travel time between Taipei and central Changhua region; flights are not practical for this short corridor due to airport transfers. For door-to-door travel and station access, rail travel is often the best choice.

Plus, it’s a greener choice, reducing your carbon footprint
