And tickets on regional trains may no longer require validation if they are dated for the day of purchase. Check with the ticket office when you buy.

Do remember to check when buying the tickets if "composting" is still current or ancient history.

Do trains often sell out with prebookings, like on some other routes? I'm a bit wary of buying in advance, in case we miss the train.

We have never had a problem getting tickets on any of the trains to/from Le Havre.  But, I guess anything is possible.  Keep in mind that there is usually one train per hour to Rouen/Paris.  On the other hand, nobody can guarantee that the trains won't break down, there won't be a labor strike, a meteor won't hit the train, etc.  

 

If you are really concerned, buy tickets in advance.  But then you must guarantee that you will be at the train station on time :).
