We hope to catch the rail at about 10am. Will all 1st Class seats be full if we buy our ticket when we get to the Beijing South Railway Station? We're wondering if we should ask our hotel to book them for us a couple of days earlier.Whichever way we buy the tickets,what time should we arrive at the railway station? Thanks for your help.

It depends. But it is advised to get the ticket in advance just in case it sells out. You'd better arrive at the station one hour before departure. If you are going to pick up ticket at the station, make it 2 hours.

Hi. Travel from Beijing to Shanghai on a G train on Friday 10th October 2014.
