The second bus in the video. I see the number 467 and the unit number itself is 146. So is 467 a schedule number on that run or is 146 a spare for 467 while 467 is out of service. I know when I was in school some times we either had a spare or a substitute driver who had their own bus the regular bus number showed in the window. But with spares the driver was watching the bus.
I rode a bus like the one at 0:00-0:14 for half a year. Most of the buses that area were gasoline powered, except for the spare buses and few of the newer ones.
@ELOfanatic In Canada all buses like that all run on Propane from 1980 all the way up to 2003 Chevys/GMC's Also most of the internationals from 80 up to 89 ran on propane as well Very Rare you would see a Deisel 80's International school bus up here not as popular as the USA. Propane is good except when your going up a hill then they suck.
While that is true to a certain extent, propane began to fall out of favour around the late 1990s, despite the fact that Bluebird/GMC offered it right up until 2003 ;)

I think gasoline/propane sounds much cooler than diesel, especially when paired with a standard tranny :D

I like diesel buses better, the gasoline bus I rode squealed like crazy. I ride a CE200 now, though I'd really like to ride a CE300

The gasoline powered enigne bus I rode was replaced a week before I moved with another gasoline powered one.
