Good morning! Andrew here.
I grew up in West Virginia, where school buses were my formative introduction to the vast world of public transportation systems. I've always been fascinated by how these vehicles fit into the context of local history (particularly in rural areas), and how riding them was a unifying experience shared across generations of students. Over the years I've built up something of a photo archive and an array of technical knowledge, and I'm hoping to share some of that here.
I'm an American Canadian, with one foot on both sides of the border.

Hi, I'm with PowerStream. We make a battery backup that keeps the video system from crashing when the engine is cranked. I am here to learn more about the school bus community. I also write the jokes around here.

Hi.
I am a school bus enthusiast in the state of New Jersey. The bus that took me to school from 2011 through 2017, Bus 1 (2008 IC BE 200), is what got me interested in buses. Not only did I find the bus visually appealing; I also loved the way the VT365 engine sounded, the hydraulic brake growl, how big the windshield was, how wide the door was, and how the driver's area was designed. That bus was so much more fun to ride on than the type A buses I previously rode on. From the very first day riding that bus, I started to look forward to riding the bus every day. I eventually learned about the different types of school buses, their different specs, and their different manufacturers, which I found so fascinating, and still do to this day. I started to film school buses on the road regularly during the 2018-2019 school year and it is honestly one of my most favorite things to do. Learning new things about school buses, riding them, and watching them drive by give me feelings of satisfaction most other things do not. While I have graduated high school, I still love to see school buses driving around every day, and I want to eventually buy a school bus for my very own.
My most favorite units are buses 1 (2008 IC BE 200), 5 (2002 International IC), and 213 (2010 IC CE 300).
My favorite school bus models are the IC BE, the first generation IC CE, and the second generation IC CE.
I hope I can contribute something to this community and meet new people.
