Twins and public transport

[emilykatesmum]

My friends has 2mth old twins and wanted to no which buggy is good for using on public transport, it has to b lightweight easy fold and have good enough space to put shopping in.

Are there any tandem easy folding ones as she wanted one of these for when they get older rather then the side by side ones

She hasn't got internet so i said i come on here as i this site alot though not this pg (i have a 1yr old)

try asking this question on the forums at www.twinsclub.co.uk - there are a lot more twin mum there and all will have an opinion for you !

I hate to say that since ds twins were born 2 years ago they have been on public transport exactly once. The train into Edinburgh, and that was only because DH was with us.

I could never guarantee that the bus or train would have wide enough doors to fit the buggy in and trying to juggle two babies and a buggy - well, I wasn't going to entertain that! It is hard enough.

Luckily my nearest big town is only four miles away so I would walk to there if I needed to, and sometimes just to get out. The town I live in had enough for any essentials I needed when I didn't have the car. (DH needs it for work and we aren't that well-off to have 2 cars.)

Sorry, this isn't being much help but it is the truth. Hopefully one of the other twin mums on here will have better suggestions.
