The Real Thing Great Western Railway Locomotive Hall, no. 5972 Olton Hall.The locomotive used in the film is an adaptation Great Western Railway Hall Class 5972 Olton Hall, and is shown pulling a Train of four cars. The film was shot in the station King's Cross and the North Yorkshire Moors Railway. Filming is conducted inside the train. The Harry Potter Train "can be mounted between the central Pickering and Grosmont, but part of an argument between large companies and local train enthusiasts, the livery is not historically correct for the locomotive, with many fans claiming that the brown is "dirty" engine. Olton Hall is not the real first locomotive to dress like the Hogwarts Express. To promote the books, the Southern Railway locomotive Taw Valley has been repainted and renamed on a temporary basis. This was rejected by Chris Columbus watching "too modern" for the film. Real King's Cross Station is not the great neo-Gothic Having regard to the Chamber of Secrets movie, which is actually the best station to St Pancras, which is located next door. The main building of St Pancras is currently closed to Trains, but will reopen its doors in 2007, the new Eurostar terminal. JK Rowling discovered after the books have been published she was confused with King's Cross, Euston Station, and the platforms 9 and 10 at King's Cross are not the ones she had designed for her Platform magic to be placed between the two. There is no platform between tracks 9 and 10 at King's Cross. To resolve this problem, re-numbered Filmmakers platforms 4 and 5 for the duration of filming. Perhaps a coincidence, a local legend claims that Queen Boudica fought her last battle near the site of King's Cross Station, and his body is said to be buried somewhere between nine and ten platforms [1]. Platform 9 ¾ at King's StationToday Cross, King's Cross Station is still no platform 9 ¾, but it has a platform 9a "and 9b a platform." The building containing suburban 9 platforms and 10 has been decorated with a "Platform 9 ¾" sign, complete with a luggage cart "stuck" halfway to through the wall.
