we have traveled from Chennai to Goa. and now in mao (Margao, Madgaon) arrived. with a special ticket, called tatkal. So travel by train is still very complicated. not the travel itself, but getting the tickets. as always give you the Indians only the info you erfrägst. So they can offer you not one train, then you get the easiest possible solution for them. they will not tell you all kinds of tickets. here a little explanation how it works in india.
open ticket - available from 00:00 the day of departure; valid for 24 hours for all trains to the destination; seating position does not confirm that you have to get hold of you or want.
reservation ticket - form-fill, you need to know the train number and other details, you have a reserved space, usually already fully booked weeks in advance.
tatkal ticket - a certain percentage of the tickets will be sold only 2 to 5 days in advance, and indeed from 08:00 clock, you pay a surcharge (SL 100-150 R) for that you have a confirmed seat on the train
