Yes, most reservations have to be made in person and are free with the JR Pass.

Some remote stations are not manned but other than those, every station can be used to book tickets.

Hi there,

Which ltd express train exactly? Do you have the name of the train service?

You could indeed add an IC card like Suica for the parts that are not included.

Hi there,

Yes, you can reserve seats with a normal JR Pass. Also limited express trains are included. For the Hokuriku Arch Pass, ltd. express trains within its validity area as included.

Both Shinkansen and ltd. express trains have reserved seats, local services only have non-reserved seats.
