Many travelers try to buy their tickets in advance when taking the train, because in many cases, it is easier for passengers who book early to choose a window seat. Maybe it's because of the excellent view and the scenery along the way; Maybe it's because of motion sickness, sitting against the window can reduce the discomfort. But after getting a ticket, many people are often confused about whether the seat is by the window or not. So, what is the distribution pattern of window seats in trains? Which seats are window-by? Next, let's explore the mysterious distribution map of the train's window seat numbers.

The seat position of EMU trains is usually indicated by the letters A, B, C, D, and F, with A and F representing window seats, C and D representing corridor seats, and B representing three-person intermediate seats.

Make your reservation using the railway company's official ** or mobile app, which usually gives you the option of seat selection, where you can choose a window seat when booking. For example, when purchasing a ticket with the railway 12306 mobile app, after selecting the departure train and arriving at the station on the home page of the app, click "Query Ticket", then select the train number that suits you, enter the "Confirm Order" page, you can select the position of A or F in the "Seat Selection Service", the seats in these two positions are by the window, if the remaining seats meet your seat selection needs, the system will give you the seat assigned to the window, otherwise you will be assigned to other seats (not by the window).
