Taxi's and car seats

We are in the process of planning a trip next spring to Stockport and Manchester for several days for sight seeing and visiting family. We will be bringing our daughter with us who will be 9-10 months old. My question is if we ride in a taxi, say from the airport to our hotel or to any train stations, will we have to bring a car seat for her? I had not thought about that until the other day and will need to plan accordingly if we do. Can she ride on our laps on trains and buses?

You can take your daughter in the back of a taxi without a car seat, but if the taxi has a car seat (which I've never seen one) then your daughter will have to go into it. On the train you can hold her, trains do not have seat belts.
