Thanks for the puzzle, Jay - I realized I'd missed this one during the Tuesday call. Guess I was working on the MGWCC.

The prompt asked for a mode of transportation. The answer is BUS.
Each themer has a phrase that is repeated four times in “The Wheels on the Bus.” A detailed explanation can be found below the grid.

.
The wheels on the bus go round and round.
The people on the bus go up and down.
The driver on the bus says, “Move on back.”
The windows on the bus go open and shut.
The order of these after "round and round" can be varied and is a matter of personal preference as are other possible phrases that may be included, as you can discover by sampling the different versions available on the Internet though I don't advise it.
Thanks to all, through the town.
