A pipeline roller coaster is a type of roller coaster in which the cars travel between the rails, as opposed to above or below them. Only Intamin and TOGO have successfully made a pipeline coaster but a prototype was produced by Arrow Dynamics in their factory which has since been scrapped, due to the company's bankruptcy.[1]
