Abstract

The amusement apparatus comprises a station, typically a seat (7) or bench on which a person may sit, facing visual display means (8). The visual display means is operated by a financial transaction (e.g. by means of coin slot or card swipe), which also causes an article such as a child's toy or the like, to be vended. In a preferred embodiment, completing the financial transaction also causes the station to be driven along a predetermined path to provide an amusement ride.
