Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask Her Majesty's Government whether people who use mobility aids with lithium ion batteries are permitted to travel with them on trains.

Train Operators are required to state in their Accessible Travel Policies, which set out the level of services and facilities disabled passengers can expect, whether they allow the carriage of mobility scooters on their trains. Information on all train operators’ policies on the conveyance of mobility scooters can be found on the National Rail Enquiries website.
