T3 is done for at Kentucky Kingdom

[TPoseOnTantrum]

This has been a hot rumor for awhile, but as per an email to passholders today, T3 is a dead coaster. Excited to see what they do here in the future, Herschend has a masterplan of sorts going on right now;

 

[Howie]

Yeah bye then. Don't let the door slam on your way out.

I see them loading up on some new vekomas, maybe a family boomerang and a thrill coaster, they're definitely due for something in 2024/25

Rest in piss

 

[emoo]

'Regret' and Beloved' in the first paragraph. I can't bring myself to read further. The GP are an odd bunch.

 

[Hyde]

Kill it with fire.

Not the best coaster but I wish with Kentucky Kingodms relationship with RMC that they would build a raptor track or maybe even bring back the topper track. Wishful thinking I know, but still.....

I mean, if they're removing a coaster, it would indicate clear up space for a new attraction. There nice land plot owned by KK further behind T3 (including the old Batman Stunt Show arena), which would give more opportunity than not.

They were...they canceled the Raptor project at the last minute at the beginning of the pandemic. It went to Silverwood.

A Gerstlauer Infinity Coaster would look really good in that spot

 

[Lori Marie Loud]

Sounds familiar.

The end is nigh for most of these SLCs it seems. Arkham recently became the first to meet the scrap heap. Mind Eraser will likely never open again at SFA. SFDL's version has also been rumored to be reaped. And now this.

 

[Fiender]

SFDE's version has also been rumored to be reaped. And now this.

SFDE?

A [just about anything other than an SLC] would look really good in that spot. My money's on an STC though. Easily marketable as an upgrade, call it T4. Herschend and Vekoma seem to be working well together.

 

[Lori Marie Loud]

SFDE?

Typo.

 

[Fiender]

Typo.

Ah, I figured. I hadn't heard anything about Darien Lake's SLC getting removed. Where did you hear about it? It just got a hand-me-down train from New England's Goliath, too.

Oh my God! I heard those trains were terrible on Goliath. I'm hoping you mean SFNE's Mind Eraser

 

[Lori Marie Loud]

Darien Lake's SLC getting removed. Where did you hear about it?

That was based mostly off Screamscape's rumor of it being SBNO all of 2022. Significantly less consensus of that one's removal.

New England's Goliath

OH, so the bull**** headsmasher diarrhea trains survived while the rest was melted down? There really is no God...

 

[Fiender]

Ah, it was probably the old trains from SFNE's SLC. And Screamscape's rumor was predicated on DL's Mind Eraser's franken train not passing inspection, which was likely true as it abruptly got the new train.

 

[Christian]

Nobody is gonna cry for a removed SLC

 

[Hixee]

Good riddance.

We can only hope that this is the first of many SLC closures...

 

[The_bullgod]

Nobody is gonna cry for a removed SLC

That's true, they will only cry when it's going to be replaced with something worse.
