Amtrak and the departments of transportation in Oklahoma and Texas will accept bicycles on the daily Heartland Flyer train, starting Aug. 24.

This enhanced service provides passengers with a way to travel with their bikes between

Oklahoma City and Ft. Worth or visit the scenic Red River area (Gainesville), Arbuckle

Mountains (Ardmore), or splendid small towns (Pauls Valley and Purcell). Take your bike to and from school at the University of Oklahoma (Norman). Reservations are required, but there is no extra charge on each passenger’s railfare during this service pilot.

Passengers must reserve their bikes by selecting “add bike” when they book their train

travel on Amtrak.com, by calling 800-USA-RAIL, using the staffed ticket office in Ft. Worth or by using the Quik-TrakSM kiosk at the Oklahoma City station.
