The Blue Bird CS Bus is a high floor bus that was sold for transit and shuttle applications. The bus is available in a front-engine or rear-engine configuration, and available in lengths from 24 to 39 feet.

Over the years, the bus had minor styling changes, mainly to the front.

A lower-cost variant of the CS Bus was the Transhuttle CS[1], offered until 2002.
