39 - Route Completed

I decided to use this ol' girl to cover a route. We're loosing her at Christmas and I'm really going to miss this bus. She's a 2001 Blue Bird Freightliner. Powered by a 5.9 Cummins rated at 190. The Allison 2000 moves her a long and has clocked over 215 thousand miles!
She's got some nice specs for her age; such as rear air ride, LEDs, an air door, and some dark tint. She's definitely served us well.

Finally, my dream combination: a 5.9 Cummins paired to an Allison 5 speed transmission

Them doors are EXACTLY like our 2007 IC CE.300’s. They Slam Shut & Whip Open!!

[@laswanlewwis]

This school bus is fast then I thought you gotta build more horse power this bus makes more stronger like a super sonic.

[@JasonFlamingo]

We still have 1997 Bluebird Freightliners. They are very rare though, as they are spare buses for our mostly antique fleet.

[@garrettf.7330]

Dang I've never seen one, I only ever see the Crown Freightliners

[@JasonFlamingo]

Garrett F. You live in Gwinnett as well?

[@JasonFlamingo]

Garrett F. Oh okay. Yeah I’ve only seen one of the BB fs65’s which was 9851 but I do know that GCPS has more

[@garrettf.7330]

You need to fo a manual transmission drive video with this same cam angle bro

[@caleba2481]

As much as I like them old bluebird frieghtliners, I think there is a problem with the bus. It sounds like she’s overheating or something and the bus sounds like a truck with that werid sound? When was the last time the old girl had mantance?

[@ag6371]

Cooling fan engaged

I use to drive one a (FS65, 1999 Bluebird body) that would top out at 82 mph and she would hold it strong on a flat ground. She could top a hill fully loaded with about 55 high school footballs plays at about 74 mph. I only drove her from time to time because I teach at the high school but I coach the football team, but the regular driver who drive her would drive the games and she would run her about 75 or 76 most of the time. Theses where real school buses this new shit they are making is crap.

[@stuntman2539]
