I think you mean:
SuDbogh lupwI' 'ej wovbogh lutIj
This is a tricky one, because we don't have rules about using multiple
adjectivally acting verbs on a single noun, especially if the phrase is
then to get a type 5 noun suffix added to it.
I have turned the idea into a pair of relative clauses, which is how we
have seen this done before. (I also got rid of the {lengmeH}, redundant
because it's implied in {lupwI'}.)
It back-translates as "they board the bus that is blue/green/yellow and
light."
Note that they don't "board in" the bus, they just "board" the bus.

The lack of any type 7 suffixes on these verbs makes me think you're
talking about something that happens regularly, rather than something
that just happened today that you're relating to us.
