The Underground, Wooden roller coaster in Adventureland, Altoona, US.

The Underground combines a wooden roller coaster track with dark ride elements, featuring two small lift hills and multiple themed show scenes inside a mine setting.

Custom Coasters International constructed this entertainment attraction in 1996, investing 1.5 million dollars to create an indoor wooden roller coaster at Adventureland.

The ride narrative incorporates elements of Iowa's coal mining heritage through the story of Sheriff Sam pursuing the outlaw Bad Bob through mine tunnels.

The Underground operates with seven-car trains that accommodate twenty-eight passengers, arranged in two rows of two seats across each car.

Philadelphia Toboggan Coasters and Gaff Box are conducting a complete track rebuild and show scene renovation for the 2024 reopening of this indoor attraction.
