Hi, I hope to get some advice. I am from South Africa and am travelling around India for a while. The rail system is confusing me! If I book a ticket online that is WL10 (for example) what are the chances of one actually getting on the train? Also I believe there is a "tourist quota"available-- how do you book tickets this way?
These are the trips I want to do in the next while:
Trichy - Hospet Junction (7th of March)

Trichy to Hospet there are no direct options.

One option i will suggest is take Mayiladuthurai-Mysore Express/16231 on 7th April from Trichy to Bangalore city & from there on 8th Morning you can take Mysore-Sainagar Shirdi Express/16217 from Bangalore City to Hospet.You have about 2 hrs of buffer time in between at Bangalore to change over the trains.You can use that time to refresh yourself.

Sorry to write again, but how would I purchase one of the tourist quota tickets? Must I do it at the station?
I think you have to visit station as there is no option available in online booking for selecting foreign tourist quota.
Visit nearest Railway station ticket counter,if to book under Foreign Tourist quota have to show your Passport & Tourist visa over there..Do visit the PRS they will guide you..
