The Underground Roller Coaster at Adventureland, Altoona, Iowa

It's time to go deep down to The Underground.

We better get our hard hats on.

On our way into the mine this miner explains that Adventureland was built on an old mine and some sort of a story about how some outlaws used it as a hideout so we better be careful.

After we're also told about the dangers of a mine collapse we're ushered into these fancy "ore cars" and head into a cheesy but fun mix between a dark ride and roller coaster.  Yeah the special effects are a not Disney or Universal standards but it's still a fun ride and worth several trips around on a visit to Adventureland.
