"China Highlights is one of the simplest ways to book train travel in China. The website is in English, and offers schedules, maps, and other information on the train stations and routes in China.

They have solid 5-star reviews on TripAdvisor, attentive customer service, and even a mobile app."Read more »
"Tickets can only be purchased two months ahead of travel. Seats sell out fast once booking opens. I used online agent China Highlights (chinahighlights.com) which holds details of your preferred trains and snaps up tickets the moment booking opens. Download or print the voucher and present it at any Chinese station to pick up the actual ticket (50p fee if it’s not the departure station). Arrive an hour before your train leaves at busy stations. Fortunately Western numerals are used for train numbers and times."Read more »
