Until someone creates an incident on said train, and then suddenly you have to do the TSA dance at train stations too.
- ghaff 3y agoHonestly, with Pre-Check, I haven't had a security check be a major issue in years and years anyway. I still tend to get there early though because--who knows what could happen? I certainly cut things a lot closer with early morning Amtrak departures than the airport.
- patall 3y agoMost of Europe doesn't even check if you have a ticket before boarding a train. Some countries check tickets at the station, but I have never been checked for anything else. And there have definitely been incidents.
- rplnt 3y agoYou get through airport-like screening (metal detectors, baggage scan) when crossing the eurotunnel.
- bpye 3y agoThe Eurotunnel is kind of special because it is an especially long undersea tunnel. It is very much the exception, you won’t see that for any other trains in the UK or France, high speed or otherwise.
