In most cases Sunday bus services see a reduced frequency than that on other days of the week with the last journey of the day often being earlier.

However I'd be interested to find out, does anyone know of any services where the last journey on a sunday is later than on other days of the week?

In the present emergency timetable for the T3 service from Wrexham to Barmouth, the last return service from Barmouth on Mondays to Saturdays is at 1905, whereas on a Sunday it is 3 hours later at 2205.

(This used to enable the GHA bus to get back to the depot at Ruabon but the service is now operated by Lloyds Coaches. It remains to be seen if this late service continues if Lloyds is awarded the contract on a regular basis).

Interesting to hear there are a few routes which do have a later service on a sunday. And significantly later than on other days of the week too

On Sunday an Hourly service but the last bus from Glasgow is 2210 .

Worth noting there is 2 part route buses at 2220 and 2320 to Carmunnock on the weekdays but EK is served later on a Sunday .

They have been threatening to axe the 31 to EK !

First post! Harrogate's 770 via Rudding Park and Follifoot. Monday - Saturday last bus is 1820, Sunday is 2225.

Again down to funding, Sundays excepted it is funded by NYCC, Sundays by (IIRC) Rudding Park. It was a commercially operated route on a half hourly to hourly interval until competition from Connexions caused Transdev to axe commercially most journeys on the non direct route between Spofforth and Harrogate and reroute them along the A661.

NXWM 62 (Wolverhampton to Compton Circular) runs hourly from 10:30am till 3:30pm, Monday to Saturday
Runs 09:30am to 5:30pm on a Sunday, meaning 3 extra journeys are added in.
