More than 1/2 hr, maybe even an hour, at least from Muenchen-Rom.

The train may arrive at the platform about 30 minutes before departure time, but I never ecountered an earlier arrival.
Be aware, that the departure may be postponed because of delayed incoming connecting trains. This is quite normal and planned in the train schedule (they will cut the waiting time at stations for that).

dependent on the Station!
München Hbf 22:50 <-- the Train is 15 - 30Min before depature in the Station.
If you board on a other Station the Train Stop for 1 - 3 Minutes!!!!
That mean jump in the next door you find and dont care which car it is!
Inside you can search for your Seat/ Bed!!!
