difference between leaves, is leaving and will leave

Hi.

I learned in grammar class a few days ago that I can use these words 'leave, start, begin, end, arrive, close, open' in present tense instead of 'will leave' when it's bound to happen.

e.g. My train leaves at 7:00 p.m. tomorrow.

And I also learned today that I can use 'She is leaving.' when she's scheduled to leave.

question 1.
Is it correct if i said "My train will leave at 7:00 p.m. tomorrow." or "My train is leaving at 7:00 p.m. tomorrow."?

question 2.
What's the difference between sentences below and when do you use each sentence on what occasion? It's so confusing. Please help.
- She leaves tomorrow.
- She is leaving tomorrow.
- She will leave tomorrow.

Thanks for your help.
