I'm not currently planning any domestic train travel, but the above information is good to know.
I don't know how far in advance. Think I recall that it has changed.
Do you know what's the latest on that?
It is at Number 10 Wenchang Road. 文昌路10号。 This is a small street that enters the north side of Yi Er Yi Dajie 一二一大街 between Dongfeng Donglu 东风东路 and Beimen Jie 北门街。
You can see it on Baidu Maps by typing in the search phrase" 昆明市一二一大街火车票售票处"。
There are many others in central Kunming a short bus ride away if you cannot locate that one.
This is the one I described a couple years back for someone else. It's real easy to find. Read back in the thread for more about it.
Stands for 余额 (yu2 e2.)

The CNAC exhibit, which is on display now, February 2009, is extremely intersting and well done. Worth a trip. The museum charges no admission and the Number 1 Kunming bus goes there.
Roundup: Kunming flooding aftermath
Posted by>>"I'm returning to Kunming next Thursday. I'm staying at a hotel in Panlong, near the intersection of Renmin Lu and Dongfeng Dong Lu."
Those two streets don't intersect. But the areas near where those two streets cross Baita Lu 白塔路 and Huancheng Donglu 环城东路 are OK.
Expo aims to strengthen China's regional ties
Posted byQuestion about the red arm bands.
In the last couple weeks I've seen lots of local citizens wearing red arm bands that have something to do with the Expo. I've been told that they are helping keep the streets near where they work clean so as to make a good impression on visiting officials.
Has anyone seen these red arm bands close up and actually been able to read the words? Just curious.
Foraging for wild edibles in Kunming's hills
Posted by@Liliping — good tip about the baking soda. Do you know how to say it or write it in Chinese? My dictionary says 小苏打, but I'm not sure if that is local usage. I'd like to buy some.

Snapshot: Kunming Carnival's Grand Parade
Posted byPosting photos of an event after the fact is nice, but Go Kunming could provide a truly useful service by listing events like this in advance so those of us who live here could know to attend.
