Description
This is the actual steam engine used in the Harry Potter film series, in the film, the engine named Hogwarts Castle and pulls the Hogwarts Express train to take the students to Hogwarts School. Before this engine turned into a film star, it was originally a GWR 5972 Olton Hall, built in 1937 and withdrawn from service in 1963. She was rescued in 1981 from Barry Scrapyard and restored into operational condition.Related content
