Ercolano To Pompei by train

I’m staying in Ercolano and want to go to Pompeii tomorrow. I’m thinking of taking the train instead of driving, but first I’d like to confirm a few details. If you’ve done this trip recently, I thank you for your advice.

  1. I have a general sense of where the train station is In Ercolano. (I can easily walk to it.) I’m not sure about Pompeii. I want to visit the ruins. Is there only one train station in Pompeii, and how far is it from an entrance to the ruins?

  2. Should I buy my tickets online or get them at the train station? Treinitalia seems okay to navigate. If I get tickets at the station, will there probably be an agent who speaks English?

  3. Am I forgetting anything?

Thanks!

Everything worked great, and we really enjoyed Pompeii. (Especially after the sun came out.) Thanks for the spot-on advice.
