Not only did the wheels on this bus go round and round, so did its contents! An original Nova Scotian idea, the Shopmobile was a mobile industrial arts facility that traveled to rural areas of the province. Equipped with all the tools of an industrial arts classroom, including power tools, a portable forge and many hand tools, it was a unique forum to train school-age boys in wood and metal working. The driver was required to be a licensed teacher, responsible for the operation of the vehicle and the instruction of the classes. Step onboard Shopmobile # 3, one of five buses that operated in Nova Scotia between 1942 and 1964.
