- The Q Train welcomes diners who use assistance dogs certified by a registered authority
- The Q Train’s dining carriages are all more than 50 years old, and therefore have limited access. The external doorway is 700mm wide, and the internal doorways are 550mm wide. We can provide an attendant propelled slim wheelchair which can be used onboard our Q Bar & Dining carriage, seated at a table for 2 or 4. Unfortunately, the internal doors on our other carriages are too narrow for wheelchairs
