1) If you're going by the D trains it'll take about 1.5 hours each way.
2) Either train station will do. If you want help with pre-buying tickets, email me at yahoo.com|ellyse99 and put "TravelChinaGuide" and your own username (eg Samantha) in the subject line.
3) On the D trains it's 54/64 RMB for 2nd/1st-class seat each way. Around 20 D trains each way daily.
4) What's your definition of "better"?!

D trains are fastest trains.
Yes, 54 RMB for 2nd-class, each way.
1st-class is better than 2nd-class, of course. More legroom and less crowded, plus you can enter from the soft-seat lounge so you don't have to squeeze to get through ticket check.
