BGW::TIMELINE Update

Hey Guys:

I updated my Busch Gardens Williamsburg Timeline with a bunch of cool new stuff. Here's a quick breakdown of some highlights:

- A vintage photo of Die Wildkatz (1979 Park Gallery)
- Two vintage photos of Glissade, (1979 Park Gallery)
- A classic photo of the Rhine River *before* the Loch Ness Monster, Big Bad Wolf and San Marco footbridge. (1977 Park Gallery)
- I've gotten the 1994 map and brochure, as well as a brief year summary as well. (1994)
- A brief write-up on the removal of Gladiator's Gauntlet (1993 Park Changes)
- And yes, there's "much, much more" too.

Also, the Drachen Fire Ride Guide is slated for a Thanksgiving release, but to get everyone excited, I created a nice little Drachen Fire video, a theatrical trailer if you will, promoting the Ride Guide's upcoming release. I'm really proud of it. If you have fat sound on your computer, this is a must see video. It really rocks.

Hope everyone digs everything...

That is a fantastic site! Seeing the Rhine River before the addition of Nessie was strange. I especially liked the old brochures to the park. Keep up the great work!

I'd love to know where you dug up pics of Glissade and Die Wildkatze! I've been looking for a long time for pics of them. Is there anyway you could make thumbnails of the pics so that we can see an enlarged view of them? The pics are rather small and I was truly hoping to see more of the ride, but I am truly shocked you got pics.

I'm glad you hadn't abandoned this project, I was beginning to wonder what happened to you because I hadn't seen any updates.

Also looking forward to the Thanksgiving, like everyone else. Keep up the good work!

Awsome work! I have brochures from 1990-present, so I have a small peice of park history, but you have broken it wide open. I can't wait til thanksgiving. Keep researching and let me know if I can help. I still work at the park and will do what I can to get information etc.
