The Yufuin no Mori train is indeed very special, and I was lucky to get a seat in the first car through Klook without paying extra to reserve a specific seat. Just a reminder, unless you absolutely must buy something, there's no need to rush to queue up to buy souvenirs. The staff will push a cart out to sell them when you're close to arriving at your destination.
