Or

One of the earliest American roller coasters was a coal mine. The Mauch Chunck Switchback Railway was built in 1827 to haul coal between two mines. People saw the coal trains zooming down hill at up to 50 miles per hour and thought, why should the coal have all the fun and tourists started paying to ride.

Listen to the episode to find out which is the true fact and which is just something silly and strange we made up.
