Its note
Splashery stretches a drumhead over this Splash's outline, twelve inches across, and finds the ways it can ring. Its lowest is 470.5 Hz, 116 cents sharp of A4, the nearest tine on the comb. The next fifteen are its overtones, and each one draws its own figure: sand gathers on the lines that stay still.

About it
A bus carries many people along a set route, stopping to let them on and off. In the United States and Canada, school buses are painted a bright yellow that is easy to see, and when they stop, red lights flash and a stop sign swings out so that traffic waits while children cross. Double-decker buses have two floors, and they are a famous sight in London.
Tap it: the school bus stops, its warning lights flash, the stop sign swings out and the doors open onto the lit doorway, then everything folds away again. Pick the school bus or a double-decker, which flashes its lights and opens its middle door, in the Splash tab.
