Yes, if the speed you go in wouldn't the speed you go out, you'd be ripped apart.

In portal (the whole point of this joke), it happens instantly an works like walking through a door. If your hand is through, it's at the other side and the rest of your body isn't.

If you would travel at the same direction and speed of the train, you could step through and be stationary at the other side. If you stand still and the train travels to you, the only "logical" answer is that you fly out the other side or be ripped apart.
