If the 14 isn't running anymore, and there's no shuttle (which I doubt, to be honest), there's always a taxi. If you can find people to share a cab with, it' around €10 as well. (provided you have a full cab)
For the return, there is a shuttle on demand, which means, it runs whenever a bus is complete, and the next one will be there as well. That's like a continuous bus shuttle. No worries there.

It's not weird!
Between 12 and 18h tgere is a bus every 45 minutes.
After that interval, there are 3 buses. One at 20:30, one at 21:30, and the last shuttle bus is at 12:15am!
So... arriving in Itzehoe station at 21:15, means, you have 15 minutes time to change. (And I suspect it'll be waiting for the train from Hamburg)

I think that's what he meant :D
It can be weirder then!
Try to catch a train from Couvin, or Marienbourg to Charleroi! It is always a direct train. So... so far, so good.
However.... There's NO interval! It runs as it goes! And sometimes it stops at all stations, sometimes only at (starting from Couvin) Marienbourg, Philipville, Walcourt and Charleroi-Sud!
To make it more complicated; the other way around (Charleroi-Sud -> Couvin) has an interval of 1 train per hour!
