Revision as of 20:44, 6 November 2007

" If coming in with a commuter train, they easily take you out of your train to search your belongings, while your train continues without you. Forget any compensation for your ticket. This is just to show that your place should be in a freight train. Some of them act very neutrally, some others behave like louts. No use to complain any higher authorities afterwords, you won´t receive any attention, specially if you write in any other language but German."

--> bullshit!!

I removed some of it. But if it's bullshit, your rewriting it would be a very welcome addition! :) Guaka 20:21, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

I will try to rewrite it, my english might not be very good, though 84.169.240.66 18:05, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

Is it really usual, that custom officers check ones luggage, when travelling from Poland? Although I never travelled there, I can hardly believe that.

I removed the assertion that this will happen at the border to the netherland, because I live close to that border and I know that this is not true.

It is not usual, but it is a border crossing and completely normal if the officers would decide to do so... as they are paid to do so under practical need or pure suspicion, it just therefore can be expected. (ps. what is the upper top section about?) Maplefanta 19:53, 6 November 2007 (CET)
If you are looking for experiences with custom officers at the polish border, mine as always been positive and flashing a canadian passport as always made the prior most aggressive officer, (either polish or german approaching the border by foot on the highway), continue into a fully polite chat...

The last 2 sentences of the border crossing should be re-written, I can't understand them Maplefanta 19:53, 6 November 2007 (CET)
