Katni Junction (Station Code: KTE)[1] is a major rail junction in Katni, India. Rail links from the junction travel in five directions — Bina, Jabalpur, Satna, Bilaspur, Singrauli. Rail links from the junction travel to New Delhi, Mumbai, Vadodara, Howrah, Chennai, Bangalore and other Indian cities. Approximately 215 trains pass the junction every day.

To reduce the junction's load the new Katni Murwara Junction has been opened to carry trains from Bina towards East India.
