Silver Dollar City: General Discussion

Brilliant news! I adore this park, just a shame that it's a bit of a pain to get to. Will definitely look to return once they have their hotel though; no doubt it will be of the same very high standard as those found at Dollywood.

I can already imagine enjoying a nice beer or cocktail sat around a fire pit!
 
It's just been confirmed by SDC on social media that Thunderation will be retiring, with its final day of operation being scheduled for 2nd January 2027.
If the park didn't already have an RMC I'd say a conversion was likely, but I doubt that's likely. It would be a nice plot of land for something new though.
 
Rumours suggest a more modern take on a mine train will replace it. I wouldn’t be surprised to see a family vekoma lim multi launch coaster with onboard audio like big bear mountain at their sister park Dollywood, as that went down very well and been a big hit for the park.

Seems like a sensible addition on a similar thrill level, although perhaps somewhat challenging to market, but I am sure they can come up with something that would be compelling enough.
 
Being removed as part of a 500m dollar investment over the next 10 years.

Not all bad news then.
