How to buy tickets...
Bangladeshi Railways now have an online ticket service, see www.esheba.cnsbd.com, but it only works with Bangladeshi bank cards and tickets are only sent to Bangladesh mobile phones, so it's no good for overseas visitors. The high-quality InterCity trains are very popular and often leave full, so make reservations at a station as soon as you can, or find a suitable local travel agency who will arrange tickets for you.
