Occasionally, new teachers (such as Remus Lupin and Horace Slughorn) could be found aboard the train as well. We don’t share your credit card details with third-party sellers, and we don’t sell your information to others.
The locomotive for the Hogwarts Express itself was originally built by the Muggle engineers at Crewe, in Cheshire, England, [1] in the early-to-mid 19th century.However, you can see the steam locomotive and carriages used for filming outside London at Warner Bros: Making of Harry Potter.
In 2019, Hornby announced a new Harry Potter range, comprising a range of Hogsmeade buildings based on the Goathland range from several years ago, and the Hogwarts Express train set. Being an official vehicle of Hogwarts school, It is considered an extension of the school and thus falls under at least some of its rules and allowances. The journey between Glasgow Queen Street – on the West Highland Line – to Fort William takes around 3 hours and 45 minutes.Hopefully, you’ve found this helpful in planning a 2023 trip to see Harry Potter’s Hogwarts Express train in Scotland.
That being said, there are no official records as to whether the service is operated on just one day at the start and end of term, or for several days on a timetable, or whether or not the coaches are charmed to be bigger on the inside than the outside similar to tents. There is no information on where exactly Hogwarts students were travelling from during the period after the acquisition of the Hogwarts express and the creation of the Hogsmeade station and before the opening of King's Cross Station and the Platform Nine and Three-Quarters in the 1850s. Tri-ang Hornby had released a model of the Hall class in 1966; however, this model was last offered in 1983 as 4930 Hagley Hall, a preserved locomotive on the Severn Valley Railway. The Hogwarts Express was the name of the train that ran between London King's Cross Station Platform 9¾ and Hogsmeade station. We also spent two nights at the Marmalade Hotel in Portree, an ideal base for visiting other parts of the island while soaking up the evening atmosphere of the island’s capital.Travelling along the West Highland Line is a breathtaking experience with stunning scenery of kaleidoscopic-coloured moors, snow-capped mountains, shimmering lochs and rugged coast. Also available are two separate Hogwarts Castle locomotives with headlight, one being TTS Sound fitted.
Loch Shiel was one of two locations used as Hogwarts Great Lake (alternatively known as the Black Lake) and featured in the Prisoner of Azkaban, Goblet of Fire and the Half-Blood Prince. A daring and controversial solution to the thorny problem was finally suggested by Minister for Magic Ottaline Gambol, who was much intrigued by Muggle inventions and saw the potential in trains.These young witches and wizards are eager to learn every spell and potion, and the first years are anxiously discussing where the SORTING HAT™ will place them! The train forms a central part of the story, as it’s the transport to Hogwarts, where Harry meets many characters, including Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley.
