Most train journeys start with a ticket, a delay, and perhaps a half-decent coffee. Hogwarts Express starts with you running straight into a wall at King's Cross. The red steam locomotive is the very beginning of the Hogwarts school year and the place where many of the series' friendships, conflicts, and enormous amounts of sweets begin. From Chocolate Frogs to Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans, it's hard to argue that ordinary DSB commuting can compete. A Harry Potter T-shirt for fans who would still choose Hogwarts Express without asking how long the journey is. Just remember to find the right platform first. Nerdshop tip: On the way to Hogwarts Express? Run only toward the wall if you’re sure you’re at Platform 9¾. Otherwise you won’t receive a Hogwarts letter – only a bump.
