Hi,

Just wondering really quick... I'm a mum of twins, and am planning on using SWT to get around and about over the next few days. Now, obviously, twins come with their own special challenges, including a bigger pram.

I'll be travelling with this buggy: http://www.prams.net/maclaren-twin-triumph-twin-buggy-denim-blue-a and was wondering if this is something that will fit on the train?

I was also wondering if there are any changing facilities on board, just in case, or whether I would need to bring something with me?

Thanks in advance.

It should physically fit but if you're travelling at peak times during the week (mornings before 9amish and afternoons around about 4pmish - 7pmish) then there may not be room for it with the huge numbers of people that will be on board.

SWT services that have a toilet (which is most apart from those on suburban services) will have a fold down table you can use for changing.

If you can give an idea of the routes you'll be using then people will be able to advise on whether their are changing facilities likely to be on those trains and any times it might be wise to avoid!
