Entry and exit is via our passports, arrive an hour earlier to do the ID checks counter (manual lane -for passports)/clearance checks for bags. Easy to locate the counter for specific train - boarding time is usually 15mins before departure. Highly recommended to book first class but comfort level of the ride depends which train is assigned for the route-some are newer and cleaner, while some are old & not very clean.
