If you've grown up with everyone's favourite wizard, Harry Potter you may think you'll never get to see the Hogwarts Express.... but now you can own you very own working replica! Hornby* have released the Hogwarts Express Train so you can recreate Harry Potter's adventures at home.
Now this is not a child's toy (though ages 5 and over can use it), but a miniature locomotive for serious fans and hobbyists, so it does come with a price tag that reflects the quality of an official Hornby train. Prepare yourself... it's £200.
At that price you would have to be a pretty serious Potterhead (or train enthusiast) to get one, but somehow we think they'll have no issues selling this beautiful train.
As well as being stocked at Argos* and Amazon*you can get buy on the official Hornby site*, along with pre-orders of more carriages (one with sounds), plus the ticket office, waiting room, footbridge and more to make a full train set. And here's the best bit.... you can get Platform 9 3/4 too!
Is this too much to put round the bottom of my Christmas tree? Probably, but I can dream...
You can view the whole Harry Potter Hornby range here* and see what's coming up.
