TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, trains from Bangkok to Hua Hin operate every day of the week. They do not only depart from Bang Sue, and Hua Lumphong station is currently not in service. Recommended websites for booking tickets include the official Thai railway site and several others mentioned by users.

This is the official Thai train ticket website. Just use the drop down menu on the top left to change languages to English.

12Go is a reseller and has no added value whatsoever, only added fees... Buy from Thairail direct and you can even get a full refund on your ticket when asked at the counter more than 24hrs before the journey. Safe travels.
