Depends on the ticket. If it is a full fare ticket, No. If it is a discount ticket, yes.

MORE DETAILS

It depends on the type of train ticket or fare you bought. While rail passes are issued in the name of specific passengers and must match that traveler's passport, regular e-tickets or train tickets as of now are not associated with specific passengers and conductors do not require ID on the train.

If the passenger does not produce a valid ticket or proof of payment, the conductor may ask them to pay the fare or exit the train at the next station.

Variations such as abbreviated names, typos or spelling mistakes aren't usually a problem. The ticket inspector (if they notice) will recognize that it's simply human error.

When the TSA agents check your boarding pass, they also check your Secure Flight passenger data. Even though your boarding pass may not match your government-issued ID (i.e. your middle name is not on it), if your passenger information is correct, there will not be a problem.
