Rivertown Rider

Instead of them tearing down Jukebox, I would love to see them enclose the main seating area and figure out a way to rework the line where you exit out into the seating area. Basically put the registers on the right hand side when you enter and move the food to the left. From the registers you would go to the right and enter the indoor seating area. They would have to extend the building into the midway slightly to make a hallway to the now enclosed seating area. This would solve the issue of your food immediately getting cold during those colder nights of Winterfest. If you did that you could put a small indoor flat where Killmart currently is. I do love your idea of a dark ride in the Action Theater space and removing WindSeeker.

It does make me wonder if they are just selling off the water parks instead of the dry parks in the case of Six Flags St. Louis and Worlds of Fun. Oceans of Fun has its own separate dedicated parking lot and you could pretty easily close off the path to Oceans from inside WOF. Hurricane Harbor in the case of St. Louis also has a separate entrance and you could probably reroute the parking lot to give them their own dedicated parking lot. As mentioned by @TombRaiderFTWthis operator looks to have mostly done water parks and FECs. I think a Michigan's Adventure or even a Great Escape which are smaller parks could feasibly be run by IAM as Michigan's Adventure. It is also possible that in the case of Great Escape it really is just the Lodge which has water rides and not the park itself. If that is the case I can't see them making a ton of money off this sale but it will help them pay down some debt at least.

We went to a lot of New England parks this year and several of the parks had an indoor Scrambler with a custom light and music show. I didn't do the one at Great Escape but the ones at Canobie and Funtown Splashtown were both very good and very popular. Something like that or something like Cyclone Sam's (their indoor Trabant) at Worlds of Fun would be popular at KI. It would be a cheaper way to have an indoor attraction.

Some above fence pics Also saw them working on the Crypt building. I'm not sure there was anything to it but found it interesting.

Here are some pics from today.

^ I would love to see us get Ragin' Cajun and the Nebulaz. We are one of the few parks in the chain that doesn't have a Wild Mouse.

^ A Family Entertainment Center. Scene 75 and Malibu Jack's are some local examples.

I agree. @BoddaH1994 made a great point on the Tower Topics episode above about how flat that piece of land is. That does make it ideal for a Screamin' Swing. I know we frequently joke on here about the 20 year gap between CP and KI: Magnum in '89, Diamondback in '09 Raptor in '94, Banshee '14 Millennium in '00, Orion '20 Ironically, Skyhawk will have its 20 year anniversary in '26. Even more telling is Maverick has its 20 year anniversary in '27. We could get the Screamin' Swing next year as the "family thrill" attraction. It has a 48 inch requirement after all. It is also something they could work with S&S on and probably get a package deal to put a Screamin' Swing in several parks over the next few years similar to what Busch just did. Then we could get a new modern Maverick-like multilaunch in '27.

I just watched them take another one. A retheme would be nice especially if something is going in The Vortex spot in '26.

I can definitely see Skyflyer getting removed with the ones at Wonderland and CP being taken out. As far as WindSeeker, I always thought it was in a weird bottlenecked location. I would be surprised if it was taken out but it is closed quite a bit (anytime it finds wind lol).

Thanks, sorry for the confusion. It would be great if they moved all of the electric underground on that side of the park.

There is a new easement on the Warren County site from November that reads like it is to put the Duke lines in Soak City underground.

Mamba holds a lot more significance to that park though than Slingshot did to KI. I realize anything is possible but I can't see it happening as it, Prowler, and Patriot are the best coasters in the park. With the lack of love they give WOF I'm surprised they are even painting it especially a different color scheme. It is also a workhorse unlike say Ka or Nighthawk.

Mamba is getting repainted so it won't be that. I could see Zulu though.

To the Gerstlauer point, I would love to see the Infinity coaster as it checks a ton of boxes. Curb appeal, dive elements that aren't as forced as a B&M dive, inversions, and most importantly for families a 48 inch height requirement. It is a great successor to Vortex in that location. It is also worth noting that Baker Concrete is listed on the NOC and one of the projects they have listed on their website is the footings for Pipeline at SWO.
