The Bus Stations you’ll need to summon the Battle Bus to your Lego Fortnite village are a high-level construction. You’ll need to have reached the snowy Frostlands biome to build one.

You’ll need:

Those first three ingredients are easy enough to find in Frostlands biomes, but the last one — rift shards — a new and unique. Let’s talk about them.

Where to find rift shards in Lego Fortnite

Rift shards are a unique resource that you can only get by destroying Bus Stations. Since they’re made out of high-level (Frostlands) materials, you’ll need an epic pickaxe (8 obsidian slabs, 5 frostpine rods) to deal any damage.

To destroy one, you’ll need to find said bus stations.

The short answer is that you find Bus Stations by exploring the world.

You’ll find one near your world’s spawn point. Beyond that, all we can say is that they seem exceedingly rare. When you’re close to one, you may hear a low pulsing sound. Better yet, you can look for the blue light on the roof (especially at night).

Why can’t I destroy Bus Stations in Lego Fortnite?

Update (8/9/2024): The indestructible Bus Stations bug has been fixed. You can now tear down any Bus Station you find to gather up those precious rift shards.

Original story (8/7/2024): As of August 7, there’s currently a bug that makes the naturally spawned Bus Stations — the ones you have to destroy to collect rift shards — indestructible. Even in sandbox mode. You can destroy any Bus Stations you build yourself in sandbox mode, but there’s currently no solution for survival.

That means that there’s no way to gather the necessary rift shards at the moment. You can still use any Bus Station you find to fast travel to the Rebel Base, though.
