Ward (buses) USWikipedia page

Ward Body Works, Inc. (also known as Ward Industries and Ward School Bus Manufacturing, Inc.) was an American bus manufacturer, specialized in yellow school buses, alongside buses for other uses. Founded in 1933 by D.H. "Dave" Ward, the company was family-owned for nearly its entire existence.

In 1980, Ward filed for bankruptcy and was reorganized as American Transportation Corporation (AmTran), keeping the Ward brand name in use on school buses. In 1991, AmTran was acquired by Navistar International, leading to the retirement of the Ward brand name during 1992. The company currently exists as the IC Bus subsidiary of International (the successor of AmTran).

See Ward 79 for the fire trucks made after the closure of Ward LaFrance Truck Corp.
