The train I have in mind is from Horwich Parkway to Blackpool and I know from using the service fairly regularly that it's rarely busy and the trains usually have a bike area that'd just about fit two bikes and a folded down trailer.
Thanks

Child bike trailer on Northern trains
Does anyone have an recent experience with taking a kids bike trailer (Croozer 1) on Northern trains? There'd be two adults with bikes as well as the trailer. The trailer folds down so we'd probably fold it down on the platform before the train arrives so I guess it'd just look like a largish bit of luggage, but I'm not sure how the rail staff would be about it.

A small tarp or similar to disguise the trailer always works wonders to give plausible deniability and camouflage. Even better if the trailer can be persuaded to fit in an overhead rack.
