   I hate trying to figure out bus schedules. Especially when I have to traverse an area I'm not familiar with and change between different bus lines.

   I've gathered I need to take the Gray's Harbor Transit "route 40" bus to Olympia, but even knowing that their schedule is confusing to me. They use 12 hour time without notation of AM or PM, though one can figure it out through what's reasonable compared to the other times on it, but then the 10pm departure from Aberdeen has no listed arrival at Olympia.. does that mean that that departure and only that departure does not arrive in Olympia at all?

   As to the next leg, Sage told me to take the 601 or 602 to the 5SR12 Park and Ride and then the 590 or 594 to downtown Seattle, but even knowing this fairly specific information I can't seem to coax a schedule out of Sound Transportation, whom I believe is the carrier for that.

   If anyone is familiar with Washington public transit or just has a magic touch with understanding the behaviour of buses, assistance would be appreciated d:

The 512 Park & Ride is a teeny tiny little center between Tacoma and Olympia near Lakewood at Highway 512 which runs East/West from I-5 to Puyallup.

Wow. You're taking public transit all the way. I admire your tenacity.

I'll check tomorrow when it's not nearly four hours past my bed time.

Generally, around here, transit schedules have evening time in bold (so 6:00 AM would be plain type and 6:00 PM would be bold)

The 590 or 594 go to Seattle. You can also pick them up from the Tacoma dome transit center which is a much larger than the 512 park & ride.

When are you going to be doing this trip?

I ride transit here all the time and should be able to help.
