You have large luggage

Limit is 20kg and 130cm total dimensions. Big bags go in the end rack; some items are banned.

Too big !

20kg and 130cm total — big bags go end-of-car.

What you'll see

If your bag is oversized or rejected, it breaks the railway luggage rules:

"Luggage oversize" · "Item not allowed"
车站提示为：行李超大 / 物品禁止携带
Error-text level: L2 (observed wording). Exact on-site text is being verified.

Why it happens

Each passenger may bring up to 20kg (35kg on some international trains), max 130cm total dimensions. Lighters, flammable liquids, sharp objects and power banks over 20000mAh are banned.

Fastest fix, free: Put large bags in the overhead rack at the end of the car; keep valuables with you. Check banned-item rules before you travel.

Every case shows the diagnosis and the first step - free. The full step-by-step fix for this exact case, the decision tree, and the offline kit are $9.99.

If nothing works

If your bag is over the limit or has a banned item:

  1. Ship the oversized bag separately or store it at the station.
  2. Remove banned items before security; buy replacements after arrival.
  3. Ask station staff about the luggage storage (寄存) service.
