Why Manmad Junction (MMR)?

Since many major express trains (especially from North and East India) do not have a direct stop at Sainagar Shirdi Railway Station (SNSI), Manmad Junction (MMR) serves as the primary alighting point for thousands of devotees.

Distance and Travel Time

Manmad station is located exactly 60 kilometers north of Shirdi. The highway connecting Manmad, Kopargaon, and Shirdi is well-maintained. A direct, non-stop taxi ride takes roughly 1 hour and 15 minutes.

Travel Options from Manmad to Shirdi

1. Private Taxi (Recommended)

Booking a private taxi is by far the most convenient option. Trains often arrive at odd hours (late night or early morning). A pre-booked taxi will be waiting for you right outside the station. You can simply load your luggage and reach your hotel in Shirdi comfortably. Sai Shirdi Cabs offers dedicated 24/7 pickups from Manmad.

2. State Transport (MSRTC) Buses

Buses are frequent during the day and are highly economical. However, you will have to walk/take an auto from the railway station to the Manmad bus stand, and then again from Shirdi bus stand to your hotel. This is difficult if you have heavy luggage or elderly family members.

3. Shared Autos / Taxis

You will find many touts outside the station offering shared rides. While cheap, they wait until the vehicle is packed completely (often uncomfortably tight) before leaving, which can waste an hour of your time.
