Future of the Congo River Rapids

Personally, it needs to be refurbished and stay long term

If it goes, it needs to be replaced by either another rapids, water coaster, a flume or a Shoot the Chute.

It cannot be replaced by another dry rollercoaster 🤔
 
So.. walking round the towers street gift shop yesterday. I noticed the T-shirts for old rides, Black Hole, Corkie, The Flume and ….. Katanga Canyon 🤔

Does this hint to the removal or renovation/retheme soon?

I wouldn’t read too much into that to be honest….
‘Oh we need some new t shirt design’
‘Shall we do old removed rides’
‘Wait let’s screw with them and at Katanga in - that’ll get the gossiping’

It’s more likely that these are all well known ‘brands’ and logos
 
They’ve sold these in the Katanga shop for ages haven’t they? Along with the ‘Choo choo’ ones.

Probably just stocking them in Towers Trading too. Not convinced this is evidence of anything.
Ah that makes sense.. phew, I hadn’t been in about 12 years and was a little worried this beauty would be going

I wouldn't go that far, but it is good to see more merchandise for Towers' past rides.
