Please don't take it personally, I just get so many Harry Potter related comments that it's getting annoying now, and I created the journal merely to provide total and utter clarity as to exactly what the Hogwarts Express is and isn't. I know maybe only a very small percentage of the Harry Potter audience are also rail enthusiasts, but all the same it does get tiresome hearing the same characters name over and over.

I must also add, you are so lucky to have the Princess stopping outside your house every year! I'd love that to happen to me, I love this engine.

Tell you what, if the Hogwarts Express stops here i'll get them a photo to distract them for ya lol. But they've been using the Nigel Gresley (might have spelled that wrong) a lot.

Sorry for all that. It just looks a tad like the Hogwarts Express, but not completely.

Yeah well, I knew it wasn't, I could tell, completely different carriages and build in general, and no 'hogwarts express' label on the front XP It just reminded me of it a bit

yes they are XP

She's there all this weekend on the steam shuttles to and from the two NRM sites at York and Shildon.

Perhaps your own Charging Princess is on the cards?
