What Next?

I think Rita's days are numbered, even more so now with the Hydraulic Launch become less and less common and phased out eventually. I don't see them replacing it with an LSM. Think a spinning Launch coaster would be ideal in that area, doesnt need loads of height etc.

Spinball doesn't have long left either I don't think. But we have been saying this about the 2 for years lol and they are still here. Galactica too potentially. The space that would open up plus if they used the car park

Can't see any of the big stuff going anywhere...all three above, potentially, have decades of service still in them... at a time of stagnation, so no need for heavy investment replacing stuff when not needed.
Flats in the obvious spots, for all ages, and a few simple play areas for the little ones while the bigger ones go on the thrill rides in that area.

That would be quick and comparatively cheap...and realistic.

Out of the 11 coasters at the park, I think the only ones you could say with any degree of confidence will still be there in 10 years time would be Bluey, Nemesis, Wicker Man, and then probably Smiler, Thirteen and Octonaughts.

But that’s a heck of a lot of potential change which clearly won’t all happen, but I think we might see some removals without a direct one-for-one replacement.

I would say Oblivion and Galactica are relatively safe. Oblivion is a short track and iconic as well as being a world first, and Galactica was a world first also, they will keep these going imo. Rita is a problem for them and spinball will make way for Horizon assuming that’s a 1.2m ride. Just my opinion mind.

I actually think Galactica is for the chopping board ahead of any other coaster.

That all said, I feel the management will want to increase capacity not decrease it
