Work tables crossword clue
65 Across · WSJ Crossword, October 22, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Work tables” is BUS. It appears as 65 Across in the Wall Street Journal crossword of October 22, 2026, a Thursday puzzle titled “Eenie, Meenie...” by Mike Shenk, and it fills 3 squares running left to right from row 15, column 1 of the 15×15 grid.
A plural clue takes a plural answer, which is why the entry ends in S. The entry begins with B and ends with S, and contains 1 vowel and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Down entries should be enough to lock it in. Thursday puzzles lean harder on misdirection, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
Past appearances
BUS has not appeared as an answer in any other WSJ puzzle in our index, which runs from May 2026 onward. It will be listed here the next time it turns up.
