I'm basically sitting beside the Volga river at present looking at the ferry terminal, and wondering if ferries or buses run instead of a train to Astrakhan - having just spent 34 hours on a train, I'd be interested in another option if reasonable.

You really should not use the bus for this trip - if you don't like Russian trains, you'll definitely will not like the buses on our roads.
There are a lot of ferry companies serving this route and I recommend you to visit the Ferry station on Volgograd and choose appropriate (Volga-tour, for example).
Main problem for you is to get the ticket only one-way - all companies generally sell roundtrip.
