Local trains[for Baidhyanath Dham/Dumka] start from PF 4 and 5 which are adjacent/next to PF 1. The station has a paid AC lounge on PF1. Retiring room is outside the main station. Technically, all three stations here = Jasidih, Baidhyathdham and Deoghar have retiring room facilities, but when I visited only JSME was operational and no one was staying at Baidhyanath Dham one. One would need to go to counter number 7 first to approve their booking and then to the 'Enquiry Office' to enter your details. It's a lot of paperwork and corruption is involved. The RR person/caretaker might even ask you for a bribe once you are leaving your room permanently.

goes for more than MRP in and around this place except for a few exceptions[ even in government owned shops]. The only good thing is the IRCTC restaurant next to the retiring room which has decent food and the lake side view near to the rail station.

The Transportation
1. #Autos
Autos are most convenient transportation here due to rates and well known the city.
When you just exit the station, there are plenty of Auto walas you will found, they are also an agent (you may call) as they have link with Hotels of any range and Dharamshala to help you to book the best range hotel in your

budget...
They will charge 10Rs per head to any Hotel or dharamshala which is nearby Temple (walkable distances)
.
2. #Taxis
Some people book a Taxi for 1 or 2 day whatever the price you may bargain, i noticed a family of 3 booked Tata Indica for 1 day @2500 Rs

3. #Buses
I don't know whether the free bus service similar to Somnath Trust board is also available here in Dwarka or not...

#Suggestion:- Opt for Auto and he will become your guide for a full day tour (more info on this will be posted separately on another Tip)
#My_Experince:- we just normally took an Auto and told him directly take us to some hotel or dharamshala, he show us 2-3 normal hotel and Dharamshala , later we told him to show some good hotels then we found 1 of them...
He only charge 10Rs per head, and also we booked him for entire day circular tour (more info on this will be posted separately on another Tip)

If travelling for end 2 end in Chair car coaches ,than stay ready for a Back pain, Some reason are As these seats are not flexible i.e. without pushback .like Those of LHB coaches ..also the seating arrangement is having 3❌3 seats with very less space in corridor compared to other ICF (2S) coaches ..
where there is ample of space and luggage🛄 can be kept either on luggage Rack or below the seat .💺.(Pic attached).
But in Garibrath big size luggage like Bag🎒 and suitcase will not come below the seat

.
If travelling with excess luggage in Garibrath CC than it can spoil your journey . as there is less space in luggage rack..
Due to 3❌3 seating style , one cannot move itself ,just have to sit In a straight direction .
During 🌃 night the conditions gets worsen ,
i.e. The LED💡 lights just above you , would not get Off .This creates a frustration . As per observation, Many of pax. put a handkerchief or Towel om their face to get rid of this bright Lights. Many People will keep the luggage in the AISLE (walking area) , due to which it takes a lot of time to reach the toilet. ..many WL pax. board the train, and sleep on the walking passage .. Some WL pax. would be Present near door , such pax. block the door ..
〰️ WHAT Can Be Done, 〰️
🔹avoid e2e journey in Garibrath CC, by paying little more 💸amount go in 3AC .
🔸If tkt not available in 3AC ,than try Tatkal or PT or simply Move on to BCT /AK RAJDHANI if want to complete the journey in short duration or
🔹try to book in other superfast train ..
