Efteling is preparing to open Baron 1898, a smaller-sized, heavily themed B&M dive coaster.
The park recently began testing the coaster and shared photos of the 18-seat trains maneuvering the track on Facebook:
The coaster features a 123-foot vertical plunge underground, reaching a top speed of 55 mph.
The coaster features two inversions in its 1,643-foot layout: an immelmann immediately following the drop and a zero-g roll, pictured below:

The theming on this ride looks top notch! A zero-G roll looks like an awesome new element for a B&M Dive coaster. Nice to see B&M trying out new elements on their coasters!
