Hi I will be in HCMC next month and want to buy a train ticket to Nha Trang for the day after I get there. Online there are several sites but it seems the prices are jacked up - at $38 for a one way soft sleeper. Google didn't give me any other results for the Official Railway Agency so I wonder:

Is $38 for a one way soft sleeper on the overnight train (11pm) the going rate in town? If not what's the actual cost at the train station.

Is there a place closer to the hotels in District 1 where I can buy tickets or do I need to go to the railway station directly?

Also i will be in Vietnam about 10 days and want to buy a prepaid sim for my Iphone. Any recommendation on which company to use for highest data speed? Don't really need to call much.

thanks! ps coming from China.

You can buy a ticket at Pham Ngu Lao street. It's an official office. I think it's no. 275C.
