Hi, you may refer to this link for your Tibet travel as well as the cost:https://www.travelchinaguide.com/tour/tibet/ As for the train from Xining to Lhasa, it takes around 23.5h. Are you sure you wanna take that? If so, you can buy the ticket on the spot at a railway station or book that in advance. As I know, Chinese train ticket reservation is available around 20 days in advance. Also, if you are healthy enough, the medical checkup is not necessary. For the travel permit, you have to apply from a travel agency.
