Roman Rapids is VERY overgrown and the queue house decorations have definitely seen better days.

While screwing around on TPR I found these mind blowing shots from 1988.

You have to admit Festa had some pretty nice landscaping.
 
On another note, last weekend I went into the bathrooms next to the gift shop before you enter the park. I never use them, but I did this time and I regretted it. It was absolutely disgusting. In my book, BGW is known for clean bathrooms, so is this normal for this bathroom, or is it the understaffing of the park?

Sanitation budgets/staffing have been slashed to bits and the park really shows it in my opinion. I've run into a lot of very dirty BGW bathrooms, restaurant tables, etc this year. 🙁

I would also say that from experience as an AH lead, those bathrooms are the worst. Easily the most visited, so as soon as you finish, it is dirty again. Also, white tile on the floor shows every footstep from dirty guest shoes. Skip cleaning (usually due to short staffing) for an hour and it gets real nasty real fast.

I was at the park yesterday and couldn't believe how dirty some of the bathrooms were. The one in the front of the park behind Big Ben's was genuinely horrific. Toilet paper and paper towels ALL over the floor, every toilet was filthy and the floors were soaked. Really really gross and not remotely something I'm used to at BGW.
 
3 of the side windows on Alpen Express's caboose have wood rotting, and some paint is flaking around the windows.

That's surprising since I'm pretty sure i saw them painting the caboose a few months ago
Not to surprising it looked really bad this spring before they repainted. I am guessing that they just through a new coat of paint over the bad areas and it didn't last.
A little hard to see in this picture but the green train caboose has major rust streaks coming down from it's roof
