Services: trains listed in the timetable (not all run every day); buses a day for the bus. Time is the fastest scheduled train and the typical bus, station to station. Flight time is shown as the air time plus 3h 20m: about 40m by road to DEL, 2h at the airport before departure, 30m from landing to the exit, and about 10m from DBR into Darbhanga. Those are our assumptions, not airline rules; the air time is on each flight card.
