Purchasing Train Tickets
1) Visit the booking page as you did in the first step of User Registration, but instead of going to the Account page, stay on the page. It will take you to the screen shown below.
2) Select origin (red circle) and destination (yellow circle). The blue switch is to only search high speed trains and exclude older trains. Your booking page should look like the screen pictured below when you’ve completed it.
3) After submitting the search you’ll be taken to a page that lists all of the available trains. Choose the train that you want to take.
Departure and arrival times are found in the left most column (red circle), departure and arrival train stations are found in the column second to the left (yellow circle), and the column most to the left is price and ticket availability (blue circle).

What's all the fuss??? I created a profile using my passport number and information directly on the 12306.cn train ticket website, can easily and effortlessly buy my train tickets there. Does nobody know this??? Choose your train, pay for it, then go to any station or office to pick up the paper ticket. And, yes, I can buy my tickets well in advance of national holidays, like any native Chinese person, too. I did so before SF, and have done so 3 times since.

Yet another foreigner-UNfriendly app / thing in this commie state. Amazing how in Europe and other places we are able to develop software/ lunch menus / hotel brochures in like 20 languages including chinese/ japanese / arabic etc. yet in China they are unable to provide basic services in English. Even at places like Bank of China , the best you get is Chinglish and thats only in Shanghai. I love wechat but im surprised it has a multilingual interface. Think of QQ lol

I agree with your comment 100%. Guangzhou has the largest international trade fair in the world yet there are virtually no English services. China doesn't care about the rest of the world. Pathetic, self absorbed nation.

English is an international language of business. If i go to virtually anywhere in Europe, the average person at the counter speaks at least a decent level of English. They WANT our money. So they should at least learn. Especially in the so called international hubs like Shanghai dont you think? This isnt some small backwards Sichuan village.

Also, if you re banking with BoC, try their emergency service number hotline, dial 95566. The English is practically incomprehensible. Just saying.

That's true. You will find that most of these wechat features only apply to Chinese as you need a Chinese ID card number to register. Funny how China introduces services only for their people but forget about everyone else. In Australia, we bend over backwards to accommodate the Chinese. I don't know why we bother.

Yes but your wife probably used her Chinese ID card to make the purchase.
