From what I could tell, it was an employee of the company that runs the trains and not an actual official.

But yes, I kinda expected a regular ID would be enough, just as it has been in the past.

People mistake 'regular ID' and national ID.

Does your regular ID state your citizenship? Good, then you can travel. If it doesn't, you aren't proving that you are a citizen with the right to travel freely in schengen.
