Dreaming of the observation car Kandy side Sunday morning. Is that already hopeless after a festival weekend, or is there still a point trying the counter when it opens.

Festival weekends make observation seats scarce. Try the counter at open anyway - no-shows happen - but have a plan B coach reserved.

Online is usually tighter than the window myth. If counter staff say sold, believe them and enjoy a regular window seat.

Do not pay a platform tout for a magic observation upgrade. That is how Sunday mornings go wrong.
