I don’t think I made one of these for 2025, and I don’t foresee any more changes in 2026, so here goes. This is still incredibly difficult, especially now that I’m at 299 credits. Bold indicates new additions. 1. Steel Vengeance - So much airtime. Even if some of it is a little weaker by...

That seems most likely in my opinion. I figure where those trains end up could be pretty telling for the future of a few parks. Discovery Kingdom still feels high on the list of potential divestments by Six Flags, but if the trains wind up there, that’d be a strong sign the park isn’t going...

Just my two cents: It wouldn’t surprise me if JANA pushed for Six Flags to be sold to private investors or private equity. Unlocking the full potential of the parks and chain likely requires a few years of underwhelming financial performance... something that doesn’t sit well with a publicly...

My guess would be if anything it is 21 seats per train with three trains so 63 total seats. Or has it been confirmed somewhere this is the 8 (or 10) across seats? What catches my eye is the clock with the hand pointed at the V... 5 inversions?

Don't know if this deserves its own thread but Six Flags President and CEO Richard Zimmerman to step down at the end of the year...

Rumor has it that it is down indefinitely.

I could actually see them opening it the next day on Friday the 13th for some extra fear factor. That would be some seriously bad timing for you.

Per the park's Instagram, Kumba will reopen this summer. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DItph5jRYKm/?igsh=dWEwd3IwcHU1YzRi

That's fair! And again and to emphasize, I don't think Timber Wolf's structure is going anywhere, but I'm fairly confident that its days of operating as a wooden coaster are over. To an extent, that's a shame because I thought it was running great from 2021 to 2023 but the re-profiling of its...

Has the chain been announcing removals? It seems like most of the closures are being done pretty quietly and any announcements come after the writing is on the wall. I feel pretty confident that this isn't going to be a full demolition but rather an RMC or GCI steel track conversion. The...

https://www.reddit.com/r/rollercoasters/comments/1jlzb37/timberwolf_entrance_boarded_up_at_worlds_of_fun/ Signage is down and the entrance is all fenced up. Its signage had been updated very recently too (maybe for the 2023 season?). Still blows my mind how much had been invested into this...

Kind of along the economic lines, it likely is not economical for a park with limited attendance and revenue generation like Worlds of Fun to try to operate three essentially full-sized and reasonably aggressive wooden roller coasters. Given the cost cutting craze of Six Flags' Project...
