Stan Shunpike, a Knight Bus conductor
- "Well, I take care of our customers, right? People come on, I help them with their luggage, give them their tickets. We have a service programme including hot chocolate, a copy of the Daily Prophet, other things like that."
- — A Knight Bus conductor discussing the details of his job[src]
The Knight Bus conductor was the wizard who kept the Knight Bus on time.[1]
Description[]
The conductor's job included greeting passengers and handling baggage. The conductor also offered drinks: thirteen Sickles bought a cup of hot chocolate, while fifteen got a hot-water bottle and a toothbrush in any colour.[2]
The only known Knight Bus conductor was Stanley Shunpike. However, as the Knight Bus travelled both at day time and night time, it was unlikely that there would be only one conductor. Also, when Stan was sent to Azkaban in 1996,[3] it is assumed that another person took his shift.
Uniform[]
The conductor wore a purple uniform.[1]
