Aaron was able to find his seat quickly.
Since he would be travelling for almost three days, he decided to book a berth beforehand. The journey includes two nights. So, he needs a place to sleep. Only berths have such a facility.
The general compartment berths were all filled. So, he had to pick a cabin berth, though they were a bit costlier than normal ones. There was nothing that he could do.
A lot of students students should be on their way on the same train as him. There are not that many trains in the first place.
So, as it was the time for the academies to open their doors, a lot of students should be on their way to their respective academies.
This train is not just going to stop only at two or three stations. A lot of stops are there and in those places there are academies.
Though Aaron may have entered the top five academies, not everyone could. For them, there are other academies, which are on the path that the train takes.
