2. They sent out a survey on potential names awhile back. I'm guessing it's one of those
3. Yes tunnels. No subterranean

General Silver Dollar City Talk / Potential Lore of SDC
Last post by Russell - February 20, 2026, 05:19:12 PMHello! A friend and I were discussing how there are no video essays explaining the lore of Silver Dollar City. We spent about an hour searching online—going through Reddit threads, Facebook groups, and pretty much everything else we could find—but we didn't come across anything useful. We believe there must be a significant storyline connecting everything in the park, including the rides and the character actors and actresses.
While browsing, I stumbled upon this forum where some accounts date back to 2007, so I'm sure someone here knows something about it. Feel free to reply to me here or email me. We're simply trying to understand the lore (both fictional and non-fictional) of the city and theme park for fun to pass the time in class, and then share it with others. We're two exhausted seniors ready to graduate, so anything to help kill time is welcome.
What we are looking for:
- Historic background of park
- Character storylines and heated rivaries
- Potential rides with connection to park backstory
- Past and current staff memebers who are interested in participating in online interviews via email
- Articles, photos, videos, past interviews, etc.
- Anything deemed reasonable for the research by you
Thanks!

Construction/Rumors / Re: Project 2027 Tracker
Last post by sdcfan88 - February 19, 2026, 04:57:47 PMIf they pull a FITH and reuse the ThuNderaTion name but for a Stryker coaster done like Mystery Mine at Dollywood? The more I research on Voltron and the Stryker Coaster model from Mack the more I'm hoping this is what SDC went with. That coaster has seven 16 rider trains with an active loading area allowing 1600 riders per hour. That's more capacity than Wildfire. The park desperately needs another reliable high capacity signature ride with the absence of TNT and this could fit the bill quite well without being too extreme or unreliable. It also has a backwards launch which I could see SDC using to market as a callback to the backwards seats on TNT.
I know any additional speculation is probably wishful thinking at this point of it being anything other than a modern clone of TNT but the first of it's kind in the USA talk and the size of the footers with all that land cleared still makes me question the possibilities.

Interesting find on youtube today, its cool to see actual footage of these short-lived rides. On another note, were POVS for these rides nonexistent/lost media? the video was only uploaded less that a day ago.
