Howdy! I hold a New Jersey CDL Class A with all endorsements. I currently operate school buses and motorcoaches in northern New Jersey. My goal with this channel is to share as much of the experience, in as many vehicles, as possible with you all.

NJ commuter bus run, Sparta/Parsippany/NYC - MCI D4500CT motorcoach
Переглядів 8 тис.2 місяці тому
100 miles on a rainy morning in bus 17214 for the scenic, exurban Sparta run. I'm covering a driver on vacation this week. We run only 2 buses daily from Sparta (you'll see the earlier one heading up along with me - that driver didn't stop for coffee!), so it's very unusual for me to get this run - normally it goes to the full-time driver who won the bid. Ironically (given the rain) this is my ...
FIRST DRIVE: 3rd-generation IC CE school bus

Cummins B6.7 and hydraulic brakes. Other notes beyond what I say at the end: you really have to press hard on the pedal for the parking brake, to the point where we're not sure if all of our drivers will be able to operate it. The transmission control is not so intuitive; in order to change gears, you have to switch to manual mode, and then remember which direction on the stalk is up and which ...
First look: 3rd-generation IC CE school bus - walkaround, engine bay, start-up

They're here! Hydraulic brakes and Cummins diesel in the brand-new IC CE. I edited out the part where I struggled for 5 minutes and failed to discover how to release the parking brake. Hopefully I'll have one out on the road soon. As you can see, we have a slew of them, most not yet in service.

It's one of our two remaining E4500 units, Detroit Diesel Series 60, showing its age and not used very much, as far as I know. I have never driven it. As usual, please leave the company name out of your comments.

School bus pre-trip and drive: 2018 Thomas C2, hydraulic brakes, exhaust brake
Переглядів 45 тис.11 місяців тому
A wet, foggy morning in northern NJ with Bus 1811. We pre-trip the bus and deadhead to the first pickup. This student caught me by surprise and I almost passed their pickup, as they are rarely there in the morning! This is one of a set of C2's we acquired recently. It hasn't been fitted with Child Check-Mate yet. See if you can find the one time I used the exhaust brake in the initial drive. Th...

Переглядів 27 тис.11 місяців тому
Please leave the company's name out of any comments 💝 2017 MCI D4500CT bus 17233 leased from NJ Transit. This run makes 5 pickups in Morris County NJ, crosses into NYC via the Lincoln Tunnel, and makes dropoffs along 7th Avenue, Varick Street, and Broadway, all the way to the southern tip of Manhattan. Recent increases in ridership prompted dispatch to split the 5 pickups across 2 buses, and to...

I don't do this run too often (Mountain Lakes - Boonton - Arlington Plaza), in fact this is the first time I've done it since we recently restored service to/from Arlington Plaza Park & Ride. I was planning on switching to the stationary GoPro mount in Mountain Lakes, but a passenger got the jump on me by being at the first stop. Usually we can just lay over there for a few minutes before start...

Are the toggles for the ambers and door on the steering wheel? I don't like the way other brands are with them on the side, off of the wheel.
They are on the wheel.

Yesss first studentt
2026 models starting to show up: Brick Twp and Ocean Twp. each got one!
Do you like the Prevost X3 busses? Those are my favorite!
I don't think I've ever even ridden a Prevost. I've only driven MCI's
Did it have any issues yet? Cuz a lot of 3rd gens been having problems lately.
Yeah there's gremlins. I haven't been driving them too much but I've heard talk

Those D45000 coach buses are tough, they don't rattle a lot and can get up speed quick and that motor is awesome and quiet
This is an excellent driver. Watch his demeanor, he's very professional, calm, steering wheel set flat and straight. He's good

What is the brand of the two way radio
Telox
My 3rd gens for my school district have the same thing
As a school bus driver, based on what we do in Rhode Island anyway, I can't help notice a few things you missed 1.check in the lug nuts 2. checking the emergency exit windows. 3. Failure to perform your two 5 mph pull-ups. 3. Did not do a two-way radio check, 4.
I left working for this company right before they were transitioning over to the tablets. God I remember when the circa 2010 Zonar software they had expired and it was a crisis. Lots of things I don’t care for in this video that do not follow the way FS had trained us. He should be starting with logging an engine chick, flipping the hood open and checking a ton of stuff, from there when doing the pre trip, I would do all component checks inside the bus before doing an air brake test, then do that and while building air in high idle, then do outside and complete the checks. And for a trainer in orange, his mirrors do not pass for the mirror grid. This company absolutely sucks and is going down the drain. Can’t wait until EQT gives up and sells FS. They did not do enough trial and error runs with the new platform and you can complete any task on the tablet practically anywhere in the world rather than following the steps in front of the zone you’re supposed to check. You don’t even have to scan the tags any more. Tons of drivers are not doing what they should be with the table and it’s getting out of control. I’m surprised these employees haven’t gotten fired yet for filming this stuff, between him and claw boss.
Is the roof yellow or white?
Not sure! I'll try to remember to look the next time I see this bus
@yitznewton ok
whys the crossing arm so curved like that on the 2nd gen ic ce they where not as curved
This is a beautiful bus! Love the redesign.
School bus
Man that bus is slower than the 2012 Thomas C2 you made a video on despite seemingly having the same rear axle gearing and HP rating. Needs more power. My districts DT’s get up and go because they have enough power for the job.
4:01 you fanning the brakes like that
I know I’m bored when I be clicking on videos like this
😂
we need this next gen ic ce 2024 bus rn in florida plllll
Makes me want to drive one looks fun
Love that engine
As a former school bus driver I guess I fail to see why everyone is getting wood over this. 🙄
Nothing will ever beat Thomas C2's, I rode in some really nice ones during my school days, and they had engine brakes which are very useful. Electrification isn't my favorite but its not like we are given a choice.
@ Cummins engines?
@@warsaw28 I think so, but I am not sure. I just know the school bus depot ended up buying a set of 5 I believe? I am pretty sure they are all 2014's and they all have jake brakes.
I despise what they have done to these busses. The front of this thing looks like a squirrel and all the modern technology makes it feel like cheap Chinese garbage electronics which it probably is full of. When will society go back to emphasis on quality and not base a products value solely on appearance. Apparently these buses are plagued with issues already too. Not a surprise. 2nd gen CEs are my favorite even with their problems they had.
Does first student okan on replacing a big portion of the sencond gens or just a couple dozen to add to the fleet
I don't know. Usually we run the buses until they're up against the 15-year limit here in New Jersey
That gear selector is primarily used for automated manual transmissions such as the International T14 automated manual transmissions, they staying stayed with the Allison push-button gear selector, did you know that International is own by the Volkswagen Group?
Got a couple of Freightliners with the 6.7 ISB in our fleet. The sounds that motor makes is music to my ears, so glad they are still putting that engine in the latest and greatest trucks.

Wait you drive first student
Hello All Things Bus - is there any chance you could do a video of driving the 3rd generation international bus , and could you use your GoPro. And is there any chance in your next video with the 3rd generation international bus that you could use the parking brake And is there any chance that you could do this for me please reply back to me and let me know if you can please. Thanks.
Sure, there's a driving video, and a Short with the parking brake
Idk if u can’t see or didn’t check his channel but he already did that
These buses look good and even drive good but they are severely over engineered and a mechanic's nightmare 😅. I work on them M-F
Is it the emissions systems that give you problems, or other things as well?
@yitznewton Servicw door issues, AC brackets and belts breaking, AC relay boards burning up, engine stalling randomly..... it's a mess!
@@Hurstcs interesting, I had the service door spaz out on me a couple weeks ago... it didn't seem to like it when I used the manual mode to open the door with the bus off
@yitznewton Engine sensor wiring which causes the SCR system to malfunction
Are the seats gray or blue?
This bus is from my birthyear im linked to my moms account
I have a company around my area called Hillman's bus service Inc and that company has Bluebirds and internationals but no C2s
i seen the routes that the bus drivers go through it’s very interesting for some reason lol great video i hope to see a thomas c2 cng
We don't have any CNG I'm afraid
i thought you drive a 2nd generation ic ce vt365
This was my bus years ago... it was retired
I miss this 3rd Gen bus
My school has these but with the old taillights which is weird
