SoB Trains..........GONE!

Featured Replies

So i was at the park today and was on AE and as usual i looked at SoB under the arches but i came to a surprise......No were in sight! Also when i was on Firehawk i saw about 5 trucks parked inside the rosebowl.

I talked to an employee and he said one of Sobs trains are being used on Flight of Fear(i do not believe him).

Lets not get off topic like most SoB topics are turning into.

Thanks

We could also just continue this discussion in the SoB to be removed thread where it was first mentioned a day ago.

That makes no sense. SOB trains for FOF? That was the best he could come up with? Haha :lol: .

Trains ON. Meaning the actual train being used on the coaster. Not parts.

Wait a minute, what? The trains are gone? Guys, this is definitely a clue that SOB is history.

OMG.

Why the hell did you start a thread about this...

They wouldn't even work on FoF because the wheels are set up differently and they probably have different spacing. Not to mention that they don't have the fins for the launch and multiple other things, nobody should beleive that.

This could have also been posted in the general SOB thread, no need for a new one.

OMG.

Where have you been? A clue? There was a public anouncement!

He was being sarcastic.

Please stop.

Maybe the employee meant in Flight of Fear. I mean, King Cobra's cars sat inside the spaghetti bowl for years.

Oh my god not EVERYTHING has to be in one topic. There is already enough chaos in the SOB Demolition thread.

You are right, but it is worth noting that homestar92 posted the following in the "SoB to be removed" thread ~24 hours before this topic was created. It would make more sense to have one conversation in one place and who posts firsts has to play a part on that. I'm not trying to act like a mod here, but too much scanning of threads and not enough checking to see if data exists in advance leads to less effective forums in my opinion.

The only info I have is that based on a ride on Adventure Express today (er... yesterday), it would appear as if SoB's trains have been moved from their former sitting place on the ground next to the ride. Where they have been moved to, I can't say, but they were not where they have been for most of the last 2 years, unless I just missed them.

Here I thought this thing was only on Youtube. Yes they will leave, like all things of KI RIP coasters.

The ride vehicles are typically the first thing to go when an attraction is being dismantled.

So they're actually gone? Or are they still at Kings Island?

Maybe that is why there was damage to the FOF building. They wanted to run old SOB one last time and the train derailed and flew into FOF, and it is sitting inside the building, explaining why there is a hole in the building. lol :lol:

Yes.

Terp, in your heart you knew he would.

Go up on the Eiffel Tower, and look over towards the helix. Behind it, you will find a boneyard contaning the old tram cars.... I bet you find something else there that may satisfy your curiosity.

^ Huh... Now that you mention that, I just realized that that whole entire backstage area containing the trams will now be entirely visible once SoB's gone. I wonder if they'll move them once it is.

OMG they're gOne! So sUrPri53d!

Can I buy the logo off the front of one?

Is there any chance the older Premier trains are still at the park? From WindSeeker, it seems that the older cars are sitting behind DA.

From google earth, It also looks like back there in the grass, There are 2 old ride signs? One is green and blue, And the other is red and yellow. I can't really tell what they say or what ride they were from.....Any hints?

The green one is the giant circular shaped sign that says Nickelodeon Universe

Also via the E.T. you may see a BB desk in the SOB graveyard...
