Those underground places in Missouri are a trip.
I must admit that would have freaked me out delivering in there. That would have been a white knuckle ride for me.
That cave that you were in is incredible!!! I never knew that anything like that existed in Kansas City. For a minute I thought that it was an underground salt mine. If I lived there I would want to work in that cave. I would feel safe from tornadoes. That is good that the temp stays at 65 degrees.
Glad to see you get out of there. Just watching made me feel claustrophobic
The Space Center underground storage In Kansas City has the US National Archives stored there, old movies and films are stored there with documents cause is mostly dry place low humidity naturally. You can find US National Archives towards the entrance. Crazy tornados and stormy weather that time of the year in the Midwest. Glad you keep the rubber on the road and got home safely.
What is this underground building? Looks like a big bunker, something out of this world!!!!!😂😂😂😂. Is it really a cave? I had no idea these were anywhere.😮😮😮. Thank you for an amazing video. Tornado and all!!!!!
Well, Opie looks just fine now that you are back home. Bless his heart.
You can definitely tell a big difference with the LED headlights in this cave from your past cave deliveries
This is the episode I discovered your channel. Guess I've been watching for 9 months now.
What an amazing experience. Thanks for taking us along for the ride. Your eyes and head shake at the start cracks me up
Haha that's awesome Dad still gotta take care of his son no matter how old you are! My Great Grandfather raised me and past away back in 2020 but even in my mid to upper 20s he would call my phone and check up on me lol I sure do miss it
I never knew anything like this existed. Amazing!!!
The caves are totally wild ....never saw anything like it 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤣🤣🤣
I'm glad you and your dad made it home to be with your family. That looked pretty rough. Hi Opie and Jax.
Ford motor company use to store cars down there in the 50s 60s 70s 80s
Hi Kurt that underground stop was very strange to an Aussie. The way you go out of your way to explain the layout of stuff I do enjoy ty. Take care stay safe 🇦🇺🏺⛽👍⛟😎
Before I retired, I'd been in and out of 3 or 4 caves in kc and one outside of kc. I was told that those caves were created and used by our military for the storage of munitions back around d the years of ww1 and ww2. I'd been told that by many sources so I assume it was true. You run around many of the same places I've been. And love yr Shepard! And yr vids.take care
Do'nt you just love them caves.lol. been in there many a tine.
I delivered a few loads down to the caves in southwest Missouri when I was an O/O. A number of them came out of Quicey, MI (Echrich), and one out of Horseheads, NY (cheese). Spooky.
never even knew about caves like this till now but this would be a great idea for them to do on the interstates in tornado country to protect all who is driving
People don't understand the danger that we put ourselves in out on the road. I'm glad you showing that side of trucking
No more caves, thanks been there done that no more....
The geology in Kansas City just lended itself to this," said Mark Martin, property manager at Parkville Commercial Underground.
During the Ice Age, continental glaciers advanced into northeast Kansas and northern Missouri, shaping the bluffs that contained two kinds of limestone: Bethany Falls and Argentine. Being a softer rock, thick limestone beds were heavily mined and provided vital sources of paving and building materials.
And it was relatively inexpensive to dig into from the base of a bluff. Most mining in these parts was horizontal, not vertical, leaving behind vast openings that people and vehicles could enter without descending a deep shaft.
Ummmm........OK. Well that was an adventure. Claustrophobia, beep beeps, and tornadoes. Never a dull moment. Safe travels and God bless.
Stay safe you and your family thanks for the ride with you
I’ve been in the ones at Carthage MO many times.
with the wind blowing like that it probably knocked out the other 2 tornado sirens
i would like to see more of your cave videos if I can 😊,and it’s the first time I’ve ever seen the humidly on a truck leaving a😂cave😂
Well between the caves and the wind....... They at least kept you cooler 😎
🍭SWEET🍭With all that dust, First Class must have gotten a royal mud bath, yuk! Thank goodness for Blue Beacons! God Bless You🙏🏼
We have truck at work with beeper that sounds like a wounded duck. 12 years and that thing still works! UGH
You need some (4) Tie downs on that RV TRLR just insurance for the winds.
backup horns are required on jobsites with moving heavy equipment. Every coal hauler across the country has them, I'm a former coalminer and used to them. Love hearing a turbo or jake
Porter greetings! 🇺🇸 A good daddy ALWAYS tries to protect his kids, no matter how old you are!!!! 🥰 That’s Love, Dedication, Respect, Teamwork in the fiercest good sense! 🧐 They’re quick to be on their knees to pray for you, Quick to pick you up, Quick to cover your back & Quick to pick up arms in your defense! That’s A Fact, Kurt! 🧐 That’s how I feel about my family!!! 🥰 Be thankful for what you got & what you are. That underground trip was so radically cool! Be glad that you weren’t in a cabover.😳 I would love to do a delivery or pickup like that at least once! And it wasn’t crowded! Well, on the inside anyway. So the ac went out? Bummer! 😵💫 The backroad out of the underground was pretty cool & scenic. Love those backroads! 🥰 Glad you made it home & that it’s ok now! I’ve missed a couple of your videos since I’ve been getting new tires for my truck, getting it ready for a trip & attending school stuff. We’re getting there. Take care my friend! 🥰🤩✌️
Wow I'd love to be able to go inside those...
Another great video!
Wonder how many miles of underground Missouri has??
Mr beep beep has a nice shiny new kenworth ...i like it
I don't know if you look at your old videos, but Ford housed a ton of ford mavericks down there in the 70's because they weren't selling them fast enough.
I have to say those back up alarms have a purpose. When I was still in high school I worked as a lumper at a produce warehouse (Pathmark Supermarket) One day our boss and foreman came running down the dock telling us all to get off the dock and go to the break room. One of the Pathmark checkers was outside standing by an open bay door by the dock plate and did not hear a trailer backing into that door. He was crushed and died a soon as the truck pulled forwards after the driver was told someone was pinned. It was horrible. My boss saw him die. 😥

Kansas
The USPS has their stamp distribution center in the underground caves in Kansas City. If I remember the addresses in the caves are laid out by Pillars.
Used to do the caves,both in Kansas and Missouri.cant say that I liked them but didn't have any trouble getting in or out but sure was glad when I exited them.be safe and safe travels.get your ac fixed so Opie can go along.miss seeing the furry critter.
Missing your companion is to be expected! And Omg, I don't know if I could do that underground. Never seen anything like that before!
Beep beep again but I'm a beeper too so one day we may running to you and my beep beep would be on lol
Yes the person was correct Kurt... The vast majority of what cameout of that old mine was rock for construction projects all around Kansas City... When the big construction boom of late 50's all the way to the mid 80's, A ton of mines was dugout for stone & others for salt... After the mines was used up.. They sat there abandoned... Companies bought them and retrofitted them in late 90's ish? to make them into cold storage bays .... Those old mines will always stay at a constant temperature inside regardless how hot or cold it gets outside....
We are both glad that you and dad make it home safe. God Bless you all.
wow watching this video and wondering how many truckers said nope not going in there lol arms have to be sore with all that tight turning really enjoyed the video!
No way I could do that my heart rate jumped watching it.
My dad would have done that exact same thing. God bless Dad. Truck it safe Kurt 😎
Those back up beep beeps are mandatory on all trucks here in Pennsylvania big or small ....im totally used to it and like it versus beeping the horn 😆
When I was in those caves the receiver told me they were old gypsum mines.
Holy crap im lost in there ....good thing you know where you're going 🤔🤔😆😆😆😆
Amazing as always thanks. God bless you all
OMG that place was tight !!! Some of the other ones I've been to are way better than that got way more room. Thanks for the video
Glad you’re safe
I was at the pilot/ FlyingJ yesterday by the subtropolis. Went to Tennessee now setting in Fremont Nebraska. Expediting has been busy for me the past few days. Stay safe out there!!
Triple thumbs up. Cat. Mew.
Wow that was scary….first time for me seeing something like that😂
Your dog is cute
Oh I've been there once before and early January / February I was running dedicated routes for BASF that cave is something else.

That storm Thursday afternoon in south dakota where im from we had 107 mph winds. It took my 102 year old barn down. Tore off a roof, about collapsed my garage took my swing set tore siding off the house and blew my back door off and filled my whole house full of dirt. Glad u guys r safe. I can post pictures and videos on Facebook if u want
Wow
@@truckingwithschmidt7120 if u want to see pictures i can send to the Facebook page
Delivered and picked up in several of them years ago. Most people never have the opportunity to experience.
One of your most different and especially in videos. This is one of my favorites of yours.
The backup beeper is for safety as well as the train horn at crossings... kurt, remember always safety frist !!!!!
That is awesome you got to go in the cave
i had 2 long days myself, rented a cargo van and drove 1867 miles all within Texas in 38 hours so no UA-cam . come back and only see Opie 8 minutes combined in 2 vlogs duuuude !!!!! LOL . glad everything and everyone is fine tho , those Tornados can be brutal
My comment has nothing to do with trucking in caves (which would have really freaked me out). Yesterday I stopped at my local DG to get milk for my Mom. There was a troubled young man at the counter ahead of me getting some essentials and was 50 cents short. I just happened to have some change and gave it to him. Sometimes all it takes to have a moment is two quarters in your pocket. Kurt, I think this speaks to you previous videos regarding talking to those who have served and guys like us who have not, and feeling pain for the folks in your neighboring area that had the tornado damage. Empathy is a double-edged sword. It's a good quality to have, but at the same time it can really sting. (sorry about the rambling. sometimes this old-timer CAN go on.)
Great video once again please be safe out there .
Drive safe out there Kurt and see you next time and keep on trucking and hope your family stays safe
love to go to the underground it looked good prayers are with y’all
Awesome point of view overlooking the steering wheel!
Kurt you all take Care of yourselves!!
Thanks for keeping it real. I received my stickers. Thanks for the nice note!!
Wow. you take care.. stay safe too you and the family..
Nice viedo Kurt I really enjoy you going thru the small.towns in Iowa👏🇺🇸
You all take good care of yourselves won't you Kurt and I hope everyone got through the tornado okay buddy
For driving in the underground and strong winds A+. Good parents will be parents until the end. You know that just because. It's good to be prepared for Mother Nature because she's unpredictable. To you and yours and neighborhoods 🙏 🚛
Nice Video BEEP BEEP BEEP Take Care
Hope you all are well. That was some wind! Glad to hear you are getting the a/c fixed cause it sure will make Opie happier, and you as well, lol.
Prayers for you..and your family..that this storm passes over you..and everybody is safe..as far as your ac not working..that's brutal..I live in florida.and my ac went out in my scion tc..I had it worked on..and 1000.00 later it works great..glad it isn't a big truck..that's going to be expensive..but you have to have it...anyway..love the videos...
Usedto love caverns in Maryland and lurray in Virginia. Now i get claustrophobic
Hi Kurt & family. Those caves look interesting 2 say the least. I think I told you a dear friend of my works somewhere in those caves. Tis the season unfortunately for that late spring early summer storms. Glad you were ok in the Ice Cream Capital of America. Glad you, the family, critters & everybody in your town were ok. The kiddos looked nice & cozy in the basement. Safe travels back 2 Omaha tomorrow. Storms here later on until 3 in the morning. Cooler temps the rest of the week into the weekend. Sure would love 2 meet you & your dad while you guys are in town. You & Opie will b on the road with a newly repaired A/C just in time 4 the summer heat.🌞😅🙏🏼💕
The Caves
Tight quarters, great job hand. I never liked going in the caves. That cave would be a great place for go cart racing. 🤪
Glad you and your family are safe😊😊😊😊
CT
Safety people can never have enough flashing lights and beepers. Next they will sync the beeps with the lights and coordinate the color of lights with the reason.
I'm back to watching your videos
That dust storm is called a Haboob. First derechos now haboobs! Only in Iowa. Enjoy the videos! Keep them coming!
There is an entrance to that place in Springfield Missouri.
Springfield Underground is a TOTALLY different place. They aren't connected!
use to drive a old frieight liner, no A.C. had a thermometer on the dog house 🏠. 138 on 70 dregree days.
Happy trucking, smart man for parking it get your ac fixed and the star of the show back I’ll catch you next video Schmidt
I don’t blame your dad, mine would do the same, I think 🤔 most dads would .. HI 👋 FAMILY glad everything is good 😊🐾🦮🐕🦺🐹🐠💦🥵
It's twister season
Looks like a West Texas dust storm, welcome back to Iowa!
Been there...
We don’t have a basement, we have a crawl space. You can stand up in it, but don’t go in there, when my son was younger the only spot in our house is the bathroom, no windows and interior room. As for me, I will be outside, I want to see what is coming at me. Still too warm for the puppy 🦮, the weather is going to be cooler, so he can be the Schmidt star 💫 again…
Ac is getting fixed as we speak
You saw Daddy you got Opie your doing pretty good... lost both of mine 😢
glad you and family are okay. Millenial Farmer in Minnesota got hit pretty good with a tornado.
Dust storm all I can say is look at the Milenial farmers farm now thats some damage
More than likely Mr. Beep, Beep also had to deliver/pickup from MSHA controlled mine sites and is required to have a backup alarm. At one time that cave didn't exist until people made a mine out of it, and it was a heck of a lot dirtier and more dangerous.
That beep beep was rude for he did not wait as you back up. He keep the brights on which blinds you. I been to many caves and one Kansas city that rails for trains used for amo during WW2. Had to blindside into the dock and most of the ceiling lights were our. Went to many in Carthage MO and one our drivers was terrified of going in. Took my trailer in and came and took his in. And Indiana a follow guided me in but leaving I got list as there wasn't directions on for the exit. At Carthage I was in a cave when a tornado hit then one time I came out and 4+inches snow. Transported many loads of cheese from Idaho.
Absolutely terrifying.
