I suggest arriving at least 30 minutes before departure. It will give you time to find parking and grab a hot drink at the café nearby. I almost missed the train because it was busier than I expected!

If you can, go in the early morning around 9 am when it's less crowded. You get stunning views with fewer people around, which makes for a way more relaxed experience.

Don't forget to bring a light jacket! It can get chilly up there, even if it feels warm in town. I wish I had one to enjoy the views in more comfort!
