It's purely irrational but I hate it when parks leave their obsolete crap all over the place. And that includes Saw the Ride. 😱

I think in an ideal world a flat ride would have replaced Slammer this year, helping to revamp the area, draw eyes to that part of the park, then you have a ready made new support ride for Exodus next year for people who haven't visited in a couple of years. Black Mirror could still exist in the space too. Hopefully the park revamp the toilets in the area too. Again, they need it, and they're the last ones on park which need it. The biggest 'disappointment' in my eyes over the Exodus investment is the lack of anything else (as things stand). We're getting the coaster, and then either a shop or food unit with it. That part of the park is in need of another non-coaster ride, another F&B unit serving lunch options and a shop as a minimum ideally. Hopefully it'll all come sooner or later, but it's a bit of a disappointment it's not all as one big cohesive investment.

Yeah what Josh said. Should imagine it would be quite expensive and quite a project to remove Slammer. Its a great space for a new flat though. If it were me I would be planning to develop that space after Exodus opens so that there is a supporting ride for the area. Also I would probably look at expanding BK2 as I can imagine that's going to be rammed next year

Don't know if there is any truth in this, but I recall a staff from the park a couple of years ago saying the reason Slammer is still standing is because it's tied in with a legal contract with Rush and that it can not be removed until Rush also goes. Either way, I do miss Slammer and it's sad to see it standing there. It's never going to happen I know, but I do wonder how much it would hypothetically cost Thorpe to repair Slammer and get it back into operation?
