In our case the route we chose is the TATEYAMA KUROBE ALPINE ROUTE:

My apologize for the bad videos. But once you get there on Tateyama station just go to the ticket office and listen to the instructions. In our case we just bought a round trip ticket and thats it’s super easy. Just ask about the time for their last trip from Kurobeko Station.
So many route options but we choose this one and I have nothing to complain.
