Thanks for the comments on your insights. It sounds like they ARE going to be doing something to FITH (and FM?) but removing them completely is not an option, right?
Just because we would like to see them do something does't mean that they are doing something. Don't read to much in there. :-)
Something is going to need to be done with them eventually. But that doesn't mean it's next year, or 2 years, or even 5 years from now. I would think that the overall condition of the buildings/ rides would mean they'd have to do something in the next 5 years, but that's only a guess based on outside observation. Not from anything within the company itself.
As to what it would be- who knows? It could be bare minimum to keep them as it is. Maybe track work. Maybe an overhaul. Maybe a revamp. Maybe completely flattening- in which case who knows if htey would rebuild, replace or just forget it. It could be anything anywhere along those lines.
Simple bottom line- no one here at this point knows. And the couple that might have an actual inkling aren't going to comment because they aren't allowed to. And even what might be in the possibilities now could easily change in the near- or far- future based on a variety of factors.
