Train entry -- fingerscaned/or no entry time recorded?

I've heard someone says in this forum Canadian citizens who seek entry by train will NOT be even recorded entry time in computer database. Is this true?

Why I see following here:
"For first-time visitors to the US, a Customs and Border Protection Officer uses an inkless, digital fingerscanner to perform a ten-finger fingerscan. Subsequent entries and exits by the same person at air, sea and land border ports will require two-finger scans for verification"

I am very concerned about whether they will record entry time in computer database or if I-94 card is required. Please help me out.
