Busy Roadway Lots of cars on the Blue Ridge Tollway today!

Station Rather empty station on Opening Day 2011.

Very empty station on Opening Day 2011. Normally in mid-season, this station's queue line is packed. The Blue Ridge Tollway is also known as Blue Ridge Bloodbath in the Halloween months at Kings Dominion and is a very popular ride that time of year too.

Covered bridge was built for 2011. I have only one hunch as to what this was REALLY built for... The Blue Ridge Bloodbath ride in October! Can't wait to see what Kings Dominion's Haunt staff does with this! Strobes? Blacklights? Time will tell.
