Hogwarts Express — King's Cross Station

MajorExpress Eligible

Not just transportation — a fully themed attraction in its own right. Guests board real train cars at a recreated King's Cross Station (you 'walk through' the brick Platform 9¾ illusion to get to the platform), then watch a window-projected journey from London to Hogsmeade with magical events outside the 'window' along the way. The scene played going west differs from the one played going east, so it's worth doing both directions. Requires a Park-to-Park ticket.

Notes

Requires park-to-park admission; the story differs by direction, so both stations are worth treating as separate experiences.
