Hello JS, In this case, switching to the losco bar which have no forward sweep and have a lot of back sweep, it maybe a good idea to follow Will's advice to use an adapter stem, 1 to 1 1/8 and then try different thread less stems until you dial in the extension to your liking. Details were in

On the Amtrak trains in the DC/NYC/Boston corridor you have to take the front wheel off and hang the bike on a hook. I'm not sure if it's the same everywhere, but fenders might be more of a problem than a long bike. I can second that the conductors don't care about the dimensions of your bike
