DeLorean Rider Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Son of Beast was "running okay" on July 8th last year aswell. You'll never know until the moment you're on the train. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derek9312 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Firehawk has been running both trains and both stations very well for a while now. SoB has had days with 1 train op as Firehawk51560 said but my advice is to go to Firehawk early because that is where the majority of the crowd goes and then hit up SoB because the line usually doesnt get too long and with both trains running it shouldnt do too bad but my advice is to hit both of them up early in the day.

jondrewfoo Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 lol yeah, but it has been running a one train operation as of late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DropZone99 Posted July 30, 2007 Author Share Posted July 30, 2007 So SOB is open today and has been running okay, like not being closed all day or anything...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kman6 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 SOB was running all day that I could tell. I didn`t ride it as the lines were a bit long and it was quite hot in the sun. Spent about 50 mins in line for Firehawk first thing this morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKI_WMA Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 I was at the park today, and SOB was open and running both trains. I rode in the blue train. I hit Firehawk first thing when the park opened. Both trains and both stations were being utilized, but seats were being assigned. I got lucky with a front row ride though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkifreakhogg Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 I rode SOB and Firehawk on Saturday evening and they were both up and running well. They have Firehawk running both stations and from what i can tell the have been running both trains and the lines have been running pretty steady with only about an hour wait. They also put new fans in the Firehawk line since i was there last saturday. Anyone else notice that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PKIVortex Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 The new fans are the rotating type, they are very powerful and really make the line much more bearable on hot days. Also about the assigned seating on Firehawk, I actually kinda like it, they have been trying very hard to have every train full every time, they even have gotten to the point where they will come out to the Que and ask for single riders just to fill a train. Great job Firehawk crew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jondrewfoo Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 yes, i have noticed the single rider calling out to the que on Firehawk, thats good they have put fans too... and SOB is running both trains, yay! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deb Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Assigned seats, that's pretty nifty. I think that is one of the main reasons IJ:ST runs so quickly, they keep the trains full and pick the odd groups out. We have yet to ride it and not been pulled from the queue. deb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erniebald57 Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 I hate assigned seats. I realize that lines have to move and all, but I'm a loyal, well paying customer. If I want to wait a few extra trains for the front seat, than I should be able to. Anyway, I was in on Sunday 7/30 and SOB was running in the morning/afternoon, but when I happened by the ride in the early evening it was closed. I tried to ask the guy manning the entrance to the queue what was up, but he was too busy talking to a couple of girly girls to answer me.
