Those are job shops, there are no old school production lines left in the US. Here's what they used to look like from a century ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xa0PAg7FfMk&t=350s

There are no more “old school” production lines left? I’m not sure what you mean; obviously there are a lot of production lines in the US, including the manufacturing of engine blocks as shown here.

Do you mean that they use robots today and therefore aren’t “old school”? That’s true in most industrialized economies.
