There are still occasionally passport checks at EU borders.

  Also unfortunately in between Copenhagen and Malmö, although a European ID card is fine as well.

  With the migration crisis, spot checks have been introduced at a few select crossings, but that still leaves plenty of possible train routes within Schengen where the authorities are not concerned about checking for migrants.

    Or any excuse a Member State wants to justify their “temporary” checkpoint. Don’t worry, MEPs won’t do anything more than talk about it. https://ec.europa.eu/home-affairs/what-we-do/policies/borders-and-visas/schengen/reintroduction-border-control_en https://ec.europa.eu/home-affairs/what-we-do/policies/border...

    I've also seen it done for drugs on the Swiss border (this was on a night train actually) and twice at Berlin airports. They're rare but still happen.
