Wheeled Mobility Device Dimensions
On some older cars, extra maneuvering may be required during boarding and detraining, particularly if a wheelchair lift is used. Smaller devices are always easier to maneuver onboard trains. Some routes can accommodate larger devices.
If the dimensions of your wheeled mobility device exceed the listed dimensions, we may still be able to accommodate your device, depending on the specific type of car or equipment used for your trip. Contact us at 1-800-USA-RAIL or TTY 1-800-523-6590 so we can provide up-to-date information specific to your travel plans and assist with accommodations or travel requests.
