This is a school bus I made a few weeks ago. It took about 6 hours to make and was a bit of a challenge. Making the front of it proved to be the roughest part, and then I had no idea how I was going to get a stop sign on the thing that could actually fold out. But as I looked through my hinge bricks I found one of those little hinged rods or whatever they're called, and the stop sign snapped right on to the end of it. Overall, I was really satisfied with how it turned out and hope you will like it. You can see pictures of it and more of my other creations here: www.mocpages.com/moc.php/14083 |

It fits in with a LEGO town perfectly, by the looks of it. That's a lot of curved pieces to create the top edges...and you even got the escape hatch on the top! Great job. My only complaint is the is the hood. It's nicely shaped, but somehow doesn't quite look right. Of course, some of the schoolbuses we have here have no hood at all...they're flat-fronted. Unfortunately, the picture quality (and sometimes size) leaves something to be desired.
Does it have an interior?

Thanks. The hood may not be the best, but it was really difficult to get it the way I wanted. I actually would've preferred to incorporate the curved hood elements Lego came out with in recent years, but I don't have any in yellow.
The Bus does have an interior. I managed to get six rows of seats in there plus the driver seat in the front of the bus. The only thing is that the top doesn't lift off. I was building it from the top down and wasn't really thinking about using tile to allow for easy access. I'll get around to fixing that though.

This is a great MOC, a review on the MOC Page said "Not too many school buses turn out both small and detailed. Great work!". I could not agree more.
