"What if I miss the train?" is correct. There is a train scheduled to arrive in the near future. But the speaker is not just talking about the possibility of missing the train. This would be pointless. Everyone waiting for a train faces the possibility of missing it. The speaker here is more worried about the consequences of missing that train, because he has important things to do that
