Or better yet, a good dark ride in the dark ride show building. I don't know much about theme park financing, but a slow-moving dark ride could fit the theme well still and CAN'T be more expensive to maintain than a whole roller coaster.

Or, now hear me out and forgive me, this is just off the cuff, but what about - a slow moving dark ride. Maybe with both physical and virtual elements/scenery. Motion bases? Sure. Why not throw in some 3D and practical effects and make it generally immersive?

Unfortunate timing for me personally, as I wanted to do a VA trip in the late summer to get all the new coaster credits since 2022 at BGW and KD (and update the Virginia coaster rankings on my site). May as well wait until 2026 instead.

Ludwig is exacting his revenge after the disrespectful renovations of his dearest Kastle.

I heard an old German tale about how the only people able to tame the cursed king are some engineers from the ocean and some falcons from a treehouse.

Hope they ask for compensation for this extended downtime.

Tough time to be an Intamin coaster in Virginia right now.

Imagine being a park that paid for an Intamin Straddle coaster that doesn't work, and then seeing what you could have done instead

I would think if they were going back to the factory, they would have shipped them in a container as they would have to go overseas. But anything's possible

Glad they have BBW to pick up some slack because this signals the are down a coaster for the season, potentially?

They were able to fool the eye a bit when they were a part of the ride but yeah that’s a bull blown jetski mold. Funny how obvious it is out of its element haha.
