at salzburg there is a mandatory train swap (believe it used to be continuous in the past). they cordon off most of the entry doors/cars, leaving only 1 passage way for boarding that could be monitored by uniformed police.

no spot check (unless you look suspect). everyone just walked on by.


east bound vienna to budapest also problem free. just a few patrols walking on board as usual
Thanks for your update. That was exactly our experience the week before. I hate the train swap but if it helps keep order, it is worth it.
