Blue Bird Conventionals by International
Itawamba County School District
Note the picture below:
The warning light control is on the pod to the left of the driver, instead of being on top of the door handle.
You can see the red light, then the yellow light, and the switch to start the yellow lights.
Also notice, this bus is an automatic, but also has hydralic brakes.
The black bar to the left of the driver seat is the parking brake.
Most buses that are automatics have air brakes.
The key is in the ignition, lets go for a drive! ;-)

According to Christopher Norris who sent in this picture, this coach is owned and operated by Baie Transport of Aylmer, Quebec, Canada. Note the difference between the US model and the French/Canadian model school buses, the french word ECOLIERS instead of SCHOOL BUS and the french word ARRET instead of STOP on the stop arm. This coach also has 4 emergency window exits, which is required by Quebec. In both Ontario and Quebec the amber warning lights are not required equipment. This coach is also equipped with a underfloor luggage compartment, however it does not have luggage racks inside as you would expect.
