Tunnel Coaster

Weather through sentiment, curiosity, or desire for the riches ores deep under ground the industrious dwarves have delved far into the mountains they first were found in. Eventually the need to transport goods became such a trial that the tunnel. coaster was built. The first tunnel coasters were wheeled cards set into carved tunnels that were towed up mountain and would be rolled downward once they were emptied. The effort to bring up the carts being little better than carrying the ores were improved upon over time with the addition of clockwork, magic, and engineering. Today's tunnel coasters are propelled by both gravity and arcane magics allowing transport of both dwarves and mined ores.

Power Generation

Like most maegitech the coaster is powered by binding a outsider into the machine. In this case the outsider is an earth elemental that slides the coaster through the mountain with little to no trouble.

Propulsion

The elemental bound into the machine turns the wheels on the tunnel coaster when the arcanist arcanist commands the bound elemental, it is also the anarchist's job to slow and stop the tunnel coasters at the designated points in the path to gather more dwarves and cargo.

Weapons & Armament

While the coaster has no weapon the speed and mass makes the nickname dwarven arrow an apt example as several accidents have shown any large vehicle with enough speed and size can easily do a significant amount of damage.

Armor and defense

The tunnel coaster has armor specific to keep the elemental bound and protect those riding the vehicle from outside harm, as well as displace anything in the train's path.
