Hello and welcome to my showcase of the unused/unfinished levels from the American Midwest theme, meant to take place between the Canyons and Metropolis. Unlike English Seaside, there's a lot less information available about this online, so feel free to correct me, but I think I got the levels in order as much as I could (and hope I didn't miss any).
Also, why is this theme called the American MIDWEST theme, its clearly the American OLD WEST theme!

This is an earlier version of the "Horse Riding" level next up. I love that this early horse is just a floating slab. Overall I like the updated one more, it has better lighting and the... horse? functions better.

This is by far the best level here. Sure, the horse... if you can call it that... is jank and might kill you. But the scenery is pretty fantastic. I could easily see this being a stand-out level if it had been finished.

Ok this level is so dark I can barely see, and its broken. Not much to say here, sorry. I may have to revisit this with mods.

This one is very broken mechanically. I mean yeah, I can beat it, but what this supposed to be? A mining minigame? I like the claw, reminds me of Diesel 10.

Now you might recognize this, turns out the Roller Run minigame levels were originally meant for the Midwest theme, but were re-purposed for the Canyons! How laz- I mean how clever

Just the sequel to the first Roller Run. Interesting that there wasn't a Roller Run 3 level made yet, no?

14:51 - usa_midwest_ml_cannoe.bin
Ugh. The race gate lasts JUST long enough for me to not make the jump. I really tried. Overall this seems like it could be a full level, I need to revisit this with the jetpack mod... I hope it's like the original Splash Mountain ride.

Speaking of Midwest levels re-purposed for The Canyons, there is cowabunga! Honestly, this level makes WAY more sense in the Western theme than the Canyons.

There's also two other levels, named cowboy_ranch_1.bin and saloon.bin, I was not sure if they were meant for Midwest or not. Regardless, here are their links:
