How Blue Bird School Buses Are Made — Complete Factory Walkthrough

Take a full factory tour and watch a Blue Bird school bus come to life — from raw steel coils and robotic stamping to painting, assembly, safety testing and first delivery. Shot with a handheld POV filming the line as workers, robots and engineers bring each bus together, this video captures the real craft behind every safety check, paint pass, and road test. You’ll see chassis assembly, drivetrain installation (including EV variant steps), laser cutting, welding, interior fit-out, paint curing, QA checks, and the final handover to a school district. Whether you’re into manufacturing, automotive engineering, fleet operations, or just curious how school buses are built — this is the full end-to-end build.
