[quote=GUESTMICHAEL,53687]Aiya!  Well, having failed to find an alternate route heading west from Yanzhou, I have opted for a soft sleeper to Shanghai leaving at 2:00 tomorrow afternoon.

The good news is I was able to buy a ticket on such short notice.  The bad news is it looks like the train arrives in Shanghai at midnight!

I was not really planning on staying in Shanghai, although I am sure it's a swell city. [mood1]

I thought I'd hop a train from Shanghai to Suzhou or Guilin.  The new question then is, is it at all possible to buy a ticket on a train at midnight in Shanghai to either of these locations, or am I going to be stuck waiting until morning when the train ticket office opens?

I would be very grateful for some help here.  I am open to any alternatives, like maybe checking into a hostel close to the train station and waiting for dawn.  In that scenario, does anyone happen to know a decent hostel that is close to the train station in Shanghai?

Thanks again for your help!
