@eq @ascentale @ml @bikenite A7. We had a similar question some month ago about train compartments for bicycles. Loved to read the answers how it is managed worldwide. But yes, it's still worth to repeat it several times!

Local trains in Germany like your example often do it pretty well: Easy access through wide doors, enough space, straps to secure the bike. (Challenge: Tell the people sitting in that compartment that the train offers so many empty seats for them, but it is mandatory that I have to use this space for my bike.).

Most bike racks in German long distance trains are a mess. E.g. ICE 3: Bike rack for 3 (yes, only three!) bicycles per train with a bar above so my handlebars don't fit under the bar. (No, I don't have pictures, as I was arguing with the train conductor how to fit my bike in a rack I payed a lot of money for.) ICE 4 is doing way better, but still challenging. Check train material before you book!
