A cool picture hanging inside Tweedside Station...

^ I LOVE those Nessie pictures in Tweedside!

 

[chickenking]

Anyone else miss this display?

Hopefully the MAN CAVE crap will disappear. Bring back my ye olde' weaponry!!

I also would like to see the pipes and tobacco return.

This video has different areas in it. But I put it here to point to a couple of things I miss. Thanks to Nora to leading me to this.

The awesome display in the stables at 1:05.

The handsome, stoic, and working fellow at 5:26. (Included here because the bridge is between Heatherdowns & Rhinefeld.)

The scenes at 7:49 & 9:06.

And, you know, the fully decorated Rhine River Cruise boats and Big BAD Wolf are sadly missed.

That video really depressed me. But great to see old things still live on.

Finally getting around to this, but here they all are (I heard there were more)...

Last batch of BGE photos published for the media in 2004. I'm with CK, it takes forever to look through gigs of backups. Especially old enough to be on DVDs and CDs.

I don't know if this is the right place for it, but here is a picture of the Grimms Landung bridge by the boats at 10:30 at night after a firework tour at the end of july. It's kinda cool to see it completely empty....

I have to say, I love this shot I took.

The little caricature building looks like a little house, the forest behind it, and the entrance of Heatherdowns looks like a village.

Congratulations, Scotland!

I applaud you for voting against independence from the rest of BGW.

Entering the park through Loch Ness would have been a challenge but it would have been worth it for Nessie to once again be the tallest, fastest coaster in the park!

With all this work being done for a certain 2015 Festa attraction that we have no information about what so ever... Lets take it back to some work being done in good Ol' Scotland!

 

[MrLaptop]

Looks sorta nice. Will take some getting used to.
Hopefully they will stuff that area with plants.
EDIT: WHAT IS THAT BLACK ASPHALT.

 

[wombat96]

Well that is from the 80's so...

 

[Jonquil]

Yeah, Busch Gardens snobs, your beloved "most beautiful park" was once filled with asphalt, just like Kings Dominion. Suck it!

 

[Mushroom]

Goodness, some KDFan is getting aggressive.

*sarcasm intended* [Good thing KD still isn't covered in asphalt!] *sarcasm intended*

I thought that was recent lol. Woops. I obviously need to go back to the park some day.
