Bus Hound, a bus that runs on cow manure, has set a "land speed record" for buses, the BBC reported. 

Cow manure is converted into fuel and powers the bus that normally functions as a public bus around the English town of Reading, running at 76.785 miles per hour (123.5 km/h/) doing a lap around a track.

The Gazette noted that Bus Hound, named after the British Bloodhound supersonic car, isn't the fastest because a police chase involving a school bus in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, reached speeds up to 100 mph. Meanwhile, Martin Gilbert, chief executive of Reading Buses, said that they can only set a world record if they exceed 150 miles per hour. 

The poop-powered bus didn't get a title in the "Guinness Book of World Records," but The Bus and Coach Buyer noted that it was simply a "lighthearted event" meant to help spread the word about biomethane gas as fuel.

Reading Buses operates a total of 34 buses powered by the cow manure fuel. This is done by converting cow manure into fuel through anaerobic digestion involving microorganisms that break down the feces in an oxygen-free environment, according to Huffington Post.

The process produces biogas, which can then be liquefied and used as fuel.

The Bus Hound with a black and white cow print is different from another U.K. "poo bus" that debuted recently called the Bio-Bus that runs on human waste.
