Metro-North Tries On-Train Bike Hooks

In a nod to bike-to-the-train folks such as TJ, JerseyJim, and the guy in medical scrubs on the fold-up bike in Hawthorne, Metro-North is inviting cyclists to test out new “prototype bike hooks” that have been installed on a pair of M-7 cars.

The hooked up cars are located on Track 28 in Grand Central.

OK, it’s a start. The only problem is, if you ride your bike to your Metro-North station, your bike is out in the ‘burbs–it probably doesn’t make sense for you to lug your bike onto the train just to test it out in Grand Central. This trial is certainly geared more towards reverse commuters than commuters.

But it’s a start.
