HWH-SDAH / SDAH-HWH:
If you alighting at Howrah jn. , and wish to go sealdah station , then opt prepaid taxi. The taxi counter and fare is under complete control of Howrah Police and they will help you for alloting the taxi to safety. But i beware you , there are two prepaid counters and both are always in long queue. Instead you can pre-book your taxi by this Howrah police website- etaxi.howrahcitypolice.in/

Lots of buses are also present from Howrah Bus depot which is at the starting point of howrah bridge. Ask anyone about sealdah bus and board it. Hardly takes 15 min (without traffic;may even take 1 hr with traffic) for this journey (The bus drivers in Kolkata are seriously very rash drivers). The buses will drop you on MG road near a flyover. Just walk few Metres below the flyover and you will reach Sealdah. If you have lots of baggage , then don't take bus. Conductors don't like passengers with lots of luggage.
There is NO direct railway connectivity for these Terminals.

Agar tu Howrah jn. pe utarna hai, aur Sealdah station jaana hai, toh prepaid taxi le. Taxi counter aur fare Howrah Police ke complete control mein hai aur wo tere liye taxi ko safety mein allot karne mein madad karenge. Par sunn, do prepaid counter hain aur dono mein hamesha lambi line hoti hai. Iske bajaye tu apni taxi pehle se book kar sakta hai is Howrah police website se - etaxi.howrahcitypolice.in/
Bahut faydemand aur time-saving hoga. Fare Howrah se Sealdah tak kareeb Rs 100 hoga.
Bahut saari buses bhi hain Howrah Bus depot se jo Howrah bridge ke starting point pe hai. Kisi se Sealdah bus ke bare mein puch aur uspe chadh ja. 15 min mein pahunch jaayega (bina traffic ke; traffic mein 1 ghanta bhi lag sakta hai) is safar mein (Kolkata ke bus drivers seriously bahut reckless hote hain). Buses tujhe MG road pe ek flyover ke paas chhod denge. Bus se utarte hi thoda niche chal aur Sealdah tak pahunch jaayega. Agar tere paas bahut saamaan hai, toh bus mat le. Conductors ko zyada luggage wale passengers pasand nahi hote.
In Terminals ke liye direct railway connectivity nahi hai.
