So can you see the remains of the king cobra track from the I-Tower? And also, the other day when I was at the park, I was at Action Zone, and I thought the old KC station was still standing, but then again, it could have been adventure ex...

^The King Cobra graveyard if i am not mistaken is located in behind SOB's Rose Bowl and i do not think you can see it from the Eiffel Tower there are too many obstructions.

As for the station question. No what you saw was AE King Cobra is all but gone leaving only a couple of footers behind.

KC's track was hauled off to a scrapper at the end of 2006, and the station was torn down with the rest of the ride in 2002.

Man if only they would have sold the track in the gift shop. Man what i would have paid to have some scraps of it.

PKIDelirium...I see you live in Xenia. I live in Jamestown. I was in Xenia today when the "tornado" was in New Jasper!

What an idea. I certainly would have paid to have such a great memento.

Two words.

Lead paint.

Not gonna happen.

You wouldn't have been able to see it prior to 2006 anyway, it was pretty well hidden behind FOF

Those are sad pictures to look at. I know, I've seen them before but it still makes me sad.

I wish the ride was still there at the park.As it was one of my first coasters i rode.

Here's one of the ride vehicles currently mothballed in Flight of Fear's "drum."

Seeing pictures of King Cobra brings back memories. I remember the first time riding it and remembering (back before I had boobs) how they wrapped around you like a snake wraps around your body. I mean literally the the 2 harness things touched in the middle...hah! Didn't the last time I rode it, but I loved that ride.

Really? I wasn't aware that lead paint was being used when it was built.

I'm sure they could remove the paint if they wanted to make some money.

Apparently you haven't done much work in the removal of environmental hazards. Nothing about that coaster track was designed or manufactured with a view towards prolonged, direct human exposure, including perhaps to children under three putting the steel, painted or not, in their mouths...suffice it to say, no environmental expert would condone a park selling this type of item to the public unless, perhaps, it was encased in plexiglass, hard plastic, glass or something similar before being sold. I can only imagine the price Cedar Fair would establish for such a thing...

I still would rather have a piece of KC track, enclosed in Lucite, rather than a moon rock!

Actually the King Cobra's cars are currently in the storage area located by Firehawk. They keep other things back there to like the old SOB trains and those gaustler(sorry for spelling) trains. Also some Halloween Haunt props.

They must have been moved somewhat recently because they were still stored in FOF during last year's KICentral event...

You're right. I haven't.

That just made me laugh.

since we are talking about this area, what is the big hole they have dug for? when i rode Son of Beast yesterday i looked over at the graveyard on the mid-course brake run and saw that they have dug a huge hole right next to the track.

Ok maybe if you cant buy a piece at least put some of it in a glass display case somewhere in the park where everyone can walk by and read, "King Cobra, America's First Stand-Up Coaster's sad remains!"

Dude, Xenia is just about the last place you want to be during a tornado warning.

I lived in Xenia during the 2000 tornado..watched it go by from my living room window.

Yeah, I saw the top of the funnel/wall cloud rotating by standing in front of my house.

In 2000 I was 13 and I remember our youth group went down to Xenia to aide in clean up efforts....
