Will I get public transport (auto etc.) at Bina Malkhedi Railway Station (MAKR) at @ 2 AM in night to go to Bina Jn. (Main station) to catch Kashi Mahakal Exp (2.40 AM departure)? From Google maps, it seems it is a very small station, located in a nearby village and not within city limits. Local members & RFs, pls help urgently so that I can make a travel booking decision.

Now a days this train run time is much better, earlier (in 1990's) , this train uses to pass via main Katni Jn (reversal), Main Bina Jn. (Reversal), Slip coaches attached at

Anuppur (APR) - so has to wait for them! . now its speed up and distance lower.

They also make it run till Amritsar in 1990s for couple of years but huge delay forced roll back to NZM. Then some time around 2010 , it got extended till HW and finally to rishikesh.
