Train Stations

This may seem like an odd question however here goes!

We will be travelling via train from Agra to Jalgoan overnight. The train stops at Jalgoan at approximately 5.30am. As I'm sure this is not a main station how will I know to get off??? Do the train stations have anglicised signs? Or will a train guard come and kick me off?

All the train stations have many boards reading the station names in English, Hindi and the local language.
Now, it depends upon the class in which you are travelling wheter the TC (Ticket Checker) will wake you up or not.
Even if you are travelling 2nd Class sleeper, TCs are usually kind enough to wake you up, if you so request (or may be buy him a coffee when you ask).
Jalgaon is a major station, and Bhusaval which comes before is even bigger. So the commotion, noise are good enough to wake you up.

Enjoy the trip..
