Questions about Oldham King Street

the Pink Line.

05:18, Monday to Thursday. Saturday and Sunday both start later; the table above has each day.

The last one leaves at 01:08, after midnight — it still counts as the previous day’s service, which is why timetables write it as a time past 24:00. Friday and Saturday run later still.

About 31 minutes to St Peter's Square on the Pink Line, and the journey planner will do any other pair of stops.

264 a weekday counting both directions — roughly one every 15 minutes each way through the middle of the day.
