Ride the Hogwarts Express trough Scotland!

Any Harry Potter fans out there? 25 years ago, on June 26, 1997, the first novel of the series was published in the UK. Did you know that you can take a ride in the famous Hogwarts Express? Muggles call it the Jacobite Steam Train though and it chugs along through Scotland.
🚂 All aboard!⁠

[@edgydreamy681]

i want a whole Harry Potter tour if I ever go back to London one day but also go to Scotland

[@TheOneCity1]

Me too ❤❤

[@kayleighbrown965]

The train yes, locomotive no. The Jacobite refers to the train and its charter. The Hogwarts Express herself and coaches was generously provided and given to the Harry Potter production by those operating the charter. I knew what you meant by the "actual train" though. Go to the North Yorkshire moors where you can go to Hogsmeade Station :)

[@Littlesnail-hj5gw]

Wasn’t it spelt Jacobyte?

[@johnramage45]

The Jacobite is a genuine train, it's the little sister to The Flying Scotsman...

[@GreenYoshi3881]

I would book a flight just for this experience right here. I was emotional the first time I rode the Universal train but this would take the cake for me ❤❤❤

[@Brendanportie]

Hogwarts express AKA olton hall is in a railway museum I hope the train returns to steam soon

[@VAviation24]

Olton hall sadly retired from service, it’s not coming back any time soon

[@GarrettMusic1]

so cool

[@suvijakuthaichaisang2849]

Hogwarts train:Help me I'M IN BACKWARDS

[@DWTravel]

😀

[@SouRwy4501Productions]

The train is the same, but the locomotive is not. It’s actually a LMS class 5mt 4-6-0 that was given the name “Jacobite”. The engine in the movie is GWR hall class 5972 “Olton Hall”, which is similarly sized to the Jacobite. The reason why the Jacobite is pulling the train and not 5972 is because 5972 is on display at Universal Studios London, and is currently not operational.

[@lylec7755]

Amazing job at explaining the Jacobite which everyone says is the Hogwarts train

[@10astudios66]

Wrong,the loco is named “The Lancashire fusilier”and is not a mixed traction,it was used for passenger services built by William stanier,the 8f later designed a few years later being the smaller and freight version of the black 5.

[@petecartwright1622]

true

[@steamtrainguy8909]

Yo I didn’t know Henry was the Hogwarts Express LMAO 😂😂

[@MrGodzilla14444]

Hogwarts Express is the best train for go to Hogwarts school ❤❤

[@SkyeLouise2005]

Ive been on that before with my family. It was amazing. I totally recommend it.

[@ScottishDadVlogs]

Would love to take my kids on this. It’s on the list!!!

[@harrypotteredits994]

I went on it and it was amazing

[@rimtim3232]

WOW this is so cool I love Harry Potter ⚡️

[@Littlesnail-hj5gw]

Wow!

[@Tat_duhh7227]

🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪

[@Kassiusday]

Where do you get that train out there ???

[@michaeltierney1]

Come to Scotland and visit our beautiful country, you are all more than welcome!

[@dds9563]

Nostalgic if you are truly a … “Pottermore !!!” So 🪄 🧙‍♀️ 🧙‍♂️ 🧙

[@blackneroadvisory]

it reminds me of the black 5

[@Khalnayak0979]

Kya nature hai yrrr😊❤

[@thecornishsteamtrain123]

However the locomotive is a black 5 there unlike a hall

[@el.x7]

I would have cried in the train help

[@shippingbad]

Fact: the engine shown in the video is a black 5, and some would even recognize it as one of the thomas the tank engine characters (guess it, its easy).

[@YeliMendez-uj6bh]

Muy bien se ve un increíble wow

[@beeher4728]

This is like ine of the british railway locomotives its a 4-6-0

[@ShinGojira1]

The only wrong this I noticed is the train, the Hogwarts express was a Hall class and this is a black 5

[@Just_a_random_person268]

“ To carry ron and Herminone to hogwarts” Harry- *Am I a joke to you?*

[@theaustinleeytchanneltalytc]

It mentioned Harry in there.

[@CoopStrasburgfan]

Nah nah olton hall is the actual train used in the movie its a great western hall class locomotive.

[@_786RP]

🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿I hope one day Almighty will take me on a ride to this wonderful train in this beautiful place 🥰... Nostalgia ❤ I feel like crying... All those memories and that music 😭 ALWAYS! ❤🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿

[@minimasterx7762]

So was the ride for line 9hrs

[@user-yg1pw2tk9w]

Where does the journey of this train starts and end? I'm interested to go.

[@Justnow654]

I don’t really like Harry Potter, but I would like to go on the train

[@DWTravel]

So there is really someone out there who doesn't like Harry Potter?! 😉

[@Car_does_stuff]

I DIDNT KNOW MY MOTHERS COUNTRY WAS BEAUTIFUL

[@alvonxio-sc-gumamela]

Gordon is gonna be mad

[@adelaidabayot2515]

Hogwart express but its black 5 engine

[@AnthonyEditz123]

That’s actually cool and you’re pretty😊😊😊😊😊

[@callumroberts3582]

You only get the food in first class😢

[@marianaespina347]

Darlin thats a black 5 not a GWR Hall class

[@kayleighbrown965]

Yup Hogwarts Castle (Olton Hall) is the Hall that thinks it's a Castle. Black 5's are just gorgeous iron horses! Got a soft spot for Princess Coronation classes myself, that and A4 Pacific Sir Nigel Gresley

[@Fchops11]

Omg it’s. Not the actual train that’s a black 5 and the hog warts express is a castle class

[@GoldsmithGaming-ec5fc]

chocolate frog price please ?

[@garanamogudu5396]

10 rupees

[@somamisra6350]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@davidlugo888]

How much is a chocolate frog?

[@harviesargent]

hey thats not the hogwarts express thats the black 5

[@BeingRealSavage]

Music are louder then voice .

[@nearlyretired7005]

This train runs from Fort William to Mallaig The loco is different. It's not the real Hogwarts Express. It's not the actual train. More lies and distortion by social media!

[@mathisntmybestsubject8440]

…Why is it facing the wrong way?

[@PotterHeads_Unique]

Where about in Scotland is it

[@kayleighbrown965]

Fort William - Fort Mallaig, there's a morning and an afternoon service.

[@IshfaqHussain-ql3de]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@namtrannguyen6656]

THATS A BLACK 5 (a.k.a. The real life Henry the green engine) NOT A HALL CLASS

[@seaweedbrain388]

3:06 omg thats @melmadog

[@dinnerplate]

Is that a great western black five

[@bridishcat6441]

no

[@bridishcat6441]

its an LMS

[@Greggs30806]

It's a LMS black five

[@Chepstowion_Adventura]

How were able film though window without getting told not to. When I went on that ride, the staff gave strict instructions not look or film out the windows, so why were you able to do it? Lucky… 😢

[@DWTravel]

Not to look out of the windows? Isn't that the best thing during a train ride?

[@olsie-fortnite7241]

I'm sorry to be a know it all,but that was just an average train.Instead,you need to go to England,Watford to see what the places ACTUALLY look like.Its a big differenc3.

[@user-zn2sn5tn4d]

Indian back packers yaha ja chuka hai

[@GTAmotor05]

It's a shame people are trying to relive the days of harry potter.. During a time where there really isn't any magic inn the world.. 😅 An ofcorse no more harry potter movies.😢

[@Bendy-it4bb]

That is not the hogwarts express, while i don't know what class it is, i know its not a black 5, and its not even red, coaches are accurate tho

[@Greggs30806]

The hogwarts express was an Ex GWR/BR castle class steam locomotive I think

[@Bendy-it4bb]
