Given a travel related situation, and given a specific question about the situation, summarize the question into a title

[Q]: I'm arriving in Thailand and spending 1 month there, traveling other countries for 1 and a half months and then returning for 2 weeks before catching my flight out from Bangkok.

Is it true that they will refuse my entry if my outgoing flight isn't within 30 days of arrival?

I haven't booked the flights yet. What is the best way to do this?

[A]: Can I get into Thailand if my outgoing flight is 3 months later?

[Q]: Is it possible to buy Indian Foreign Tourist Quota railway tickets at the Vasco Da Gama railway station? This post from 2012 says it is possible, however mentions restrictions on tickets at Madgaon, and was wondering if a similar restriction applied to tickets purchased at Vasco Da Gama... http://www.indiamike.com/india/indian-railways-f10/booking-offices-for-foreign-tourist-quota-in-goa-t166621/

[A]: Can you buy Foreign Tourist Quota tickets at Vasco Da Gama railway station?

[Q]: I will be travelling to Iceland -> Ireland -> UK -> France (in that order) in the span of about 2 weeks this summer, and unfortunately I need a separate visa for each country (basic tourist/short visit visa)

However, I saw that Iceland and France are schengen countries, and was wondering if I could use 1 visa to visit both countries, even though I am visting two countries out of the schengen program in between.

Would love to save both time & money by only applying for 1, rather than 2 separate schengen visas.

Thanks!
