I work night shift for years, and to me, I think the time that you feel most sleepy would be 3am to 6am.. That's the time when I feel really sleepy if I don't really get that much work, and that's the time when I scoff coffee down my throat so I'm awake..
If I think that I don't want coffee, I'll just read more news and also go on MyLot and discuss things, that usually keeps me up.. :)

I worked night shift for a few years 11pm-7am. The hardest time to stay awake is between 4 and 5am just before the sun rises in the morning. This is your body telling you that now is sleep time not awake time. That is when most truck accidents happen also. I found the best way to combat that is to jog on the spot move arms around. This seems to increase the blood flow and wakes you up a tad. The hardest thing with night shift is your sleep pattern. You go to sleep when you normally don't. Often sleep is broken down into two or three short sleeps. It doesn't help when next door decides to start his power boat up at 9am lol. There is nothing anyone can do about that because hes allowed to start his boat at that hour and make as much noise as he wants. Night shift is not for party people friday night people are out having fun you work til 7am saturday. Saturday you too tired still to go out. Sunday nothing open lol

I used to work night shift all the time, and I still have to work overnight occasionally. I am usually OK until about 4-5 AM, but after that, I start looking for some help to get me through until I can go home...

Anytime is sleepy time in graveyard but for me the most sleepiest time would be, after having heavy midnight snack ;)
