MoBikeFed comment: Working towards nationwide standard roll-on bicycle service for all Amtrak routes has been one of the many projects we have worked with our peer organizations across the country on.

Roll-on bicycle service has been added to new routes recently and has been gradually improving over the years.

We are very pleased that the bicycle roll-on service on the Missouri River Runner--which parallels the Katy Trail for much of its route--is one of the longest-running bicycle roll-on routes in the Amtrak system.

Service on the Missouri River Runner started in the 1990s when MoBikeFed leaders approached Missouri state legislators about the the possibility.
