C7 Trike and Wheelchair on Train To Newcastle

A bit of a trip on trains and underground which is a new experience for me, even though I'm an old hand in a wheelchair.
Glad I had a trike strapped to the front of my chair for power.
Had to go to Newcastle to pick up a Chrysler Voyager for converting with air suspension (to make it 'kneel') and a side fold-out ramp and hand controls, this one was so much cheaper than prices down South, so road trip it was.
All rather good fun even though I had been a bit anxious before I got on the first train...

Thank you so much for taking us with you on your journey. This was so informative. Train journeys are a scary thought but you handled it well.

My partner is disabled and here in Germany we have to book the equivalent of "travel assist" which is ninety nine percent excellent. because of low platforms high trains in Germany we get a hydraulic lift system so I get in one door with the bags and my partner gets lifted into the other door. You do need a trained operator so sometimes we have to alter our itinerary to get the assistance.
