Each column is one journey, headed by the time it sets off and where it finishes — not every journey on this route runs the whole way. A · means that journey does not stop there. Times are shown at the route's main timing stops — buses serve all stops in between. Switch a table to All stops for every stop it calls at, or open a stop's own page for live departures there.

Frequently asked questions
What time is the first 504 coach?
The 504 runs 24 hours a day, so there is no first or last 504 coach — the night timetable is below.
What time is the last 504 coach?
There is no last 504 coach: the 504 runs through the night, every night it runs.
How much does the 504 coach cost?
This is a long-distance coach service, so the England £3 bus fare cap does not apply — nor do local bus tickets or passes. Coach operators set their own fares and price by demand, so booking further ahead is usually much cheaper than buying on the day.
Who runs the 504 coach?
The 504 is operated by National Express.
