How to book
You can purchase tickets at the ticket booths located at city train stations - this is typically the most economical way. Booking directly at the counter can sometimes save you up to 30% compared to online prices.
However, waiting until the last minute (even 2-3 days before departure) can be risky, as seats or berths on popular routes may sell out quickly. If you choose to reserve online, be aware that agents will typically charge a commission, but many offer complimentary ticket delivery services.
