the proper name for bus is omnibus, back when they first appeared on the streets they were open, meaning they didn't have a roof, therefor one couldn't go in, thy went on

Getting inside and getting on the bus are synonymous phrases!
While taking Spanish in high school, we learned that the word for "in" and "on" were both the same -- "en."
