ABSTRACT:
A toy includes a board having a path and a plurality of animal figures drawn on the board along the path, and a toy sightseeing bus moved along the path. Electrically conductive members are formed on the path at positions opposing the animal figures for producing commands which specify the corresponding animals. A group of contacts are arrayed on the bottom of the toy bus in such a manner that the contacts come into sliding contact with the electrically conductive members. When the toy bus arrives at a position opposing an animal figure, a set of the contacts is closed selectively by the electrically conductive member corresponding to this animal figure so that the closed contacts generate a signal designating the animal. The toy bus is provided with a signal processing circuit for producing command signals corresponding to the animal figures by processing the signals from the group of contacts, and a memory for storing audio data representing a characterizing feature of each of the animals, such as the cry of the animal, the data being read out of the memory based upon the command signal from the signal processing circuit. The toy bus is further provided with a speaker for producing the cries of the animals based upon the data read out of the memory, and with a lamp caused to flash when the toy bus passes by each animal figure.
