Default Where do I find a bus timetable?

Can anyone tell me where to find a bus timetable? I've clicked on "bus
home" on the Tfl site. I've put a bus number where it should go, and
all I get is a bus map. I KNOW what bus I want. Where do I find a
timetable?

It's a simple journey. From Harlesden to Greenford. An 18 then a 92.
But I need to find the timetables!


It _is_ there, but I agree it's buried. Go to TfL's site, click on
'Journey Planner' (on the left), then 'Timetables', then a little
further down there's 'Bus timetable'. Enter the route number you want,
then choose the destination of the direction you want, then click on
the bus stop you'll get on. You'll get a PDF of the timetable from that
stop.

All the information is there but it's far from intuitive.


Or just follow this link to take you straight the

Once you've found where the timetables actually are, you'll find it's a
great service. As Alistair says, you actually get a PDF of the
timetable as it would appear at the bus stop. This is great, as most
bus stops in London now have a specific timetable printed for them.

I find this service particularly useful for looking up the times of
night buses.
