so where excactly are the KC trains at FoF? i know that the ride graveyard is behind SoB - you can see it very easily when the ride goes on the straight part from the helix to the loop. all i can see in the ride graveyard is KC and what looks like some sort of collection of cars for a tram or monorail or something.

Every time I've ridden FoF I still have not seen them. I know they are there, I must always be looking in the wrong darn place or something. No biggie. But anywho... King Cobra is stored in multiple places in the park.

I have never seen the King Cobra trains either. I'm beginning to think that they aren't visible to riders, despite what several people have said. I seriously doubt they would be stored in the spaghetti bowl ( Possible damage by flying objects ) and I have looked time and again in the brake run, but no KC trains. Actually, I don't think there is even room for the trains to be located along the brake run.

( If you have actually seen the King Cobra train(s) the above statements don't apply to you, but until I see them for myself, I remain skeptical )

Trust me...the KC trains are in the drum of FOF....they are probably not able to be seen by riders because of the darkness. They are on the far left side of the drum (Opposite the launch side) near the final corkscrew. They have been in there since the ride was taken apart. I have seen them many of times when I have been down in the bowl.

As for the original topic of the boneyards.....KC is being stored in multiple areas, most of the track is down by the fireworks site on the road behind FOF. There are also some pieces of the track out by the old greenhouse(I'm not sure if it is still being used). There is another boneyard out on the edge of the park by the associate lot where the second half of the old PT cars are stored, along with some old logs flume logs, the original TR:TR display, some old cars, and many other misc. things.

ALL of these areas are off-limits to anyone but the authorized personel who work in the departments that use them.

In addition to the boneyards mentioned above, there is an additional boneyard in the Action Zone, although a very small one. The boneyard lies next to a green building that used to be part of the monorail attreaction. The building/boneyard are stuck beside TimberWolf, behind Drop Zone and to the left of the Top Gun line. At one point there used to be a set of unused Flight of Fear cars there.

There are a lot of places in the park where they store old pieces of track, old cars and other misc. things from the park (anyone remember the Kodak racing car? or the backdrop for the TR:TR opening that was in front of the foutain?).

All of those places are totally off limits to the guests and no one is ever given permission to go back to those areas. Anyone caought in those areas would be charged with trespassing...

In one of the posts someone mentioned the "old greenhouse"... we sill have our greenhouses and use them year round. If you go into the camp ground you can see them, from behind a fence of course.

The cars for KC are stored in the drum of FoF, I've seen them there myself. Of course, I was able to go into the drum in the daylight, with all the lights on inside and through one of the garage doors, so it was very easy for me to see them. It was kinda like seeing a ghost. Oh, the ride would be much more scary with the lights on, there are MANY close calls on that ride!
