Was there a few yrs ago-and it really is not that different from any other country. Go to office, buy ticket, and on the day/time the dep. is-get there some time before. Train comes in, find seat/space, do some polite neat talk with the other pax and meanwhile train goes off.
IF you are the tipical bekpek-type, then about anywhere those congregate you will find-as anywhere in Asia- dozens of little agencies who can arrange any-thing for a small extra.
Otherwise check-as always too- seat61.com -it has all the usual info for newbees and some recent reports too.
