it's not difficult at all if you have one reasonably sized piece of
luggage. if you carry a monster, you might have a hard time. you
normally stow the luggage above your head, or between the seats. there
are two or three steps when you get on the train. just be careful.

i just traveled allover italy by train with a 7 and 10 year old who
handled their own luggage in addition to a small backpack each. a
small backpack in lieu of, or in addition to, a handbag works quite
well.

have fun, and pack light!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
