Nothing new to see on the exterior of the Squires project now that work has migrated entirely indoors. That said, the dining deck is coming along very nicely!
Whoever at @BuschGardensVA went through the trouble of finding Alpengeist's original in-queue lore video and adding it to the clip rotation on the new queue TV, you're amazing and we love you. 🥰 I captured a recording of the full segment and will edit it and share soon.
At long last, Loch Ness Monster's vintage diving suit and gear have returned to the coaster's entrance!
So, uh, why has @BuschGardensVA put DarKoaster, their newest roller coaster, on weekend-only operations. Not even Tempesto gets that treatment. Is this a maintenance limitation? Operating cost problem? Popularity issue? VERY strange. If anyone knows what's up, please reach out!
Wolf Valley's new retaining wall, back gate, and turf are in! No wolves in the exhibit yet, but it's getting close! 🐺
Loch Ness Monster's new pre-lift scene has a train-triggered audio track with a fair bit of dialogue and atmospheric audio! It may continue up Lift 1 too—can't tell from ground level. Insane how much storytelling investment is going into this renovation!
Can we talk about how fantastic this banner is for a second? Whoever is doing the branding design work on this renovation is absolutely killing it.

@BGWFans I was probably on there then lol, I work at the park. I got to ride it twice.
@BGWFans @BuschGardensVA Currently running only one train despite what's shaping up to be a busy day, so I'm guessing it's a maintenance issue.
@BGWFans @BuschGardensVA Thank you for posting this update. I am heading to the park May 20th and now will have to come a day early to get the credit since it will be closed on Monday. UGH.
@YellowShoeGuy @BGWFans @Kirblar024 What a weird response to a completely valid concwrn
@BGWFans @BuschGardensVA When I came during the week and rode quite a few times in a row, the ops were standing around waiting for riders more often than not. Could potentially a part of it, too expensive to run for low ridership during the week maybe? Seems a little weird to me still, though.
@BGWFans @BuschGardensVA Especially considering the upcoming project is rumored to be yet another family coaster….
@BGWFans It’s about time Nessie needed updated & with the new themed elements adds more mystery to the enjoyment of LNM
I love when other people also get excited about fake rocks.
New rockwork is being installed in the Rhine River at the base of Nessie's interlocking loops in preparation for the install of the rumored Loch Ness Monster figure! How long has it been since we saw new thematic rockwork installed at @BuschGardensVA? Absolutely love to see it!
@BGWFans @TechyCatArtist I love this and am very hyped. But my question is, are they prepared for the medium term upkeep they’ll require, and that aren’t so easy to sell once the ride isn’t “sexy” and brand new? See, Verbolten… 😣
@BGWFans It’s no brainer in my opinion! Youd be turning an area that’s not meant to be seen by the public into an area that HAS to be seen by the public, so therefore you have to bring it up to the standard of the rest of the park. But we’ll have to see what happens I guess!
@BGWFans @BuschGardensVA Every time I think this project can’t get any better, it does
@BGWFans Can’t wait to read all about it after I get home from my trip!
We love you @BGWFans but alas the time has come again where I have to put my fingers in my ears and go LALALALALALALA until I get the chance to ride Loch Ness. I salute you for your journalism. 🫡
@BGWFans @BuschGardensVA I love seeing the return of thematic detail.
@BGWFans @GreekFreak42 I'm noticing theming and intentionality to creep back in with their projects lately.
4/19/24. Not real changes at Clermont this week. There were some pieces moved around about but doesn’t appear to be any new pieces. One piece was moved, maybe can someone can make out what it says.
