I catch the X80 regularly and its loadings do vary. Was quite busy this afternoon but then sometimes, it may have a maximum of a dozen people on it.

According to Traveline, on weekdays, the only journeys from Rochdale would be at 0612, 0636, 0700, 0725 and 1744, while from Manchester, the departures are at 1620, 1650, 1720 and 1750. All other journeys run to/from Thornham except for 0722 from Manchester, which runs to Royton, returning at 0822. All Saturday journeys run Thornham-Manchester only.
