Hours? representing start and end time
Consider the following cases:
The training session starts at 9.00 AM and ends at 5.00 AM.
1. The training session hours are 9.00 AM to 05.00 PM.
The bank opens at 10.00 AM and closes at 05.00 AM.
2. The bank hours are 10.00 AM to 05.00 PM.
3. The bank operating hours are 10.00 AM to 05.00 PM.
4. The bank's operating hours are 10.00 AM to 05.00 PM.
The train starts departs at 07.00 AM and arrives at 8.00 AM.
The same train departs at 10.00 AM and arrives at 11.00 AM.
5. The train hours are from 07.00 AM to 11.00 AM.
Questions:
A) Is hours the right word in all the numbered sentences? What are the words that might replace hours? Is there a BE and AE difference there?
B) Is there any difference betweek sentences 2, 3, and 4?
C) Among 3 and 4, which is gramatically correct usage? And in case any one is wrong, is that an accepted usage?
(I belive my usage of 'any one' instead of 'anyone' is correct).
Appreciate your help. Thank you.
