buses

This sound is a Greater Richmond Transit Company bus driving down the road. The bus starts at a stop and you can hear the pedestrian warning, then the bus begins accelerating and you can hear the engine whirring as the bus passes by. This sound was recorded on an iPhone 6.

From the adjacent sidewalk, I took this sound recording of an articulated bus passing through the tunnel leading to Duke's East campus. The audio begins as the bus approaches the entrance of the tunnel. The noise intensifies as the bus proceeds to halfway point of the tunnel where I stood holding the mic and then fades as it exits. Recorded on iPhone 5.
