In the year 2034...
Mining can be dangerous, being crushed, suffocated, or trapped and starved to death are only the usual risks. You could also be redirected into the sewer and drowned, shot by other rogue miners, or eaten alive by monsters from the depths. But they pay is good, the right merchants will pay handsomely for minerals or metals, and the wrong merchants will pay the gear you steal from other miners.

What are the possible mines I can go to?
Is there anything going on around me? Being bombarded by salesmen and saleswomen aside.

Are there other ways I can make money in the city that don't stray to much from the RPG?

You can mine in an old sulfur mine outside the city or
an ancient history museum found underground.

There are a few small coal mies in the city.
There's a crazy stumbling around trying to get away from peace officers.
There is a rich tycoonist looking for miners to hire.

As you enter the city sissy starts giggling and eventually hands you four magnum cartridges.

You find yourself in a small city-central park.
There is a hotdog stand and a couple of police standing in the corner.

The presence of police is slightly unnerving, but I try to act casual and alert the others. "Yo, 6-up is right on the corner there, and that hotdog guy seems suspicious. I suggest we leave."

The museum is five-foot under and has the dirt packed and shaped into a ramp leading down to the front door. The door itself is missing.
So's the door mat...thieves these days.
Once you enter the museum you come into a large rectangular lobby with four doors leading to different topics.
They are:
Old technology, period arms, The Varton War,
and Project Re-colonization.

Penny nods and gestures to a taxi nearby.
The hot-dog man smiles at you.

You enter the section of the museum and find it mostly intact, the bullet-proof cases protecting the guns from being stolen.
There is a row of pistols through out the ages on a long table on the right, starting with Flintlocks, and harmonica pistols, through to Colts and eventually Luger's and Snyder & Kemps.
On the left is a framed Peasant's Regal from the European Revolution, as well as a magazine for it and several 12mm cartridges.
Notably the Magnum handgun is almost twice the size of the modern affair and has a small revolver style handle.

I shudder at the wiener salesman, and follow Penny to the cab.

I use my pick-axe to try break the part under the bullet-proof case of the peasant's regal gun.

I try selling my lump named "Ãrevoks to a passing stranger."

What are the forms of transportation I can use to get to one of the coal mines?

The four of you manage to fit into the car, with Sissy happily residing in the hood, and Alazannder pays the cabbie to take you to the west part of town.
All is well until the taxi reaches traffic and comes to a dead stop. On the left of the cab is a red American muscle car. There is a JJ Symbol on the door and as a hood-ornament.

There is a sound cab service and several crowded buses.
The man is too busy being chased by the pigs to reply properly, but says something about "Convicted verily for blueberry fraud"

The old wooden table under the case brakes easily and you retrieve the ancient 'hand-cannon' pistol. You loud the rounds into it and end up with one full magazine.
