Goathland Station and the Flying Scotsman

Goathland Station was the location of Hogsmeade Railway station in the very first movie ‘Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone’. Goathland Station opened in 1865 as part of the North East Railway. It closed down in 1965 but has since reopened as part of the North York Moors Railway, which is a charity organisation. Although it’s been welcoming visitors since the 19th century, this tiny village now sees thousands of Harry Potter enthusiasts every year who want to experience some Wizarding World magic. The Flying Scotsman Possibly the most famous train in the world. The Flying Scotsman is one of the Pacific type (Class A1) express tender locomotives built in Doncaster from designs by Sir Nigel Gresley, LNER’s chief mechanical engineer. They were the most powerful steam locomotives used by the LNER railway on the fastest and heaviest express passenger trains between London and Edinburgh. In 1924 it was selected to appear at the British Empire Exhibition in London. By that time the locomotive had been given the name Flying Scotsman after the express passenger service it served. It was one of twelve Pacific type locomotives in service on the east coast main line that year, with another forty due to be delivered. #theflyingscotsman #steamtrain #trainspotting #trains #northyorkshiremoorsrailway #harrypotter #harrypotterfan #harrypotterfacts #hogsmeade
