Security Check?

The high speed train "Renfe Avant" will bring you from Madrid to Toledo in thirty minutes.
Since Toledo is notorious for it's swords -more than 2000 years ago Iberian blacksmiths made their swords using special steal and tricks- the best sold touristic item would be the sword I guess.
On the way back to Madrid you have to pass the security check at the (beautiful) railwaystaiton. Needless to stay that it's not permitted to carry knives or simmilar weapons onboard of this train. To check this an open-air-airport-röntgen-scanner has been installed.....By the way; did I mention the average size of these Toledan swords?.........about 150 cm.
