[edit] Passport control

"During the pre-Schengen era, passport checks were conducted on EC trains while in motion, rather than while parked at a station or requiring the passengers to disembark, as was sometimes the case for non EC trains."

Isn't this still the case? With the Schengen treaty there's no passport control at most borders, but some trains still pass through borders where there has to be a passport control, such as the borders to Switzerland and Poland. Or has the passport control policy changed, so that passports now are checked at stations? (212.247.11.153 00:08, 6 April 2007 (UTC))

Referring to Slovenia - hasn't it recently joined Schengen so surely passport checks no longer take place here.--129.67.118.19 (talk) 21:44, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
