Each column is one journey, headed by the time it sets off; one that finishes short of the usual end says where ("to …") — 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 A6 coach?
The A6 runs 24 hours a day, so there is no first or last A6 coach — the night timetable is below.
What time is the last A6 coach?
There is no last A6 coach: the A6 runs through the night, every night it runs.
How much does the A6 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 A6 coach?
The A6 is operated by National Express.
