In my experience bus time tables are entirely works of fiction anyway. At best they are expressions of aspiration and vaunted ambition.

They are only there to give you something to read whilst waiting for the next bus. It's a little known fact that during the great bus shortage of '96, one Japanese visitor to the UK stood at a stop for three days without food or water trying to work out when the next bus was due. Things did work out for our Nipponese friend, however, as on his return to Japan he patented Sudoku and made an absolute mint.
