Off the British Path |
This is just a tumblr dedicated to my trip to England and France this summer! (Like an inspiration board.) I have no idea where I should go exactly, but I don't want to just do all the obvious places. So help me out here by giving me advice on where to go, what to do, and send in lots of submissions and pictures! And let me know where I can meet all those cute British boys ;) I love you followers! You mean the world to me! Please visit my other tumblr at www.justanothersouthernbelle.tumblr.com |
16. Hogsmeade Station
Location: Goathland Station, North Yorkshire
The Hogwart’s Express finishes its journey not in Scotland but North Yorkshire. “I’m reasonably up to speed on Harry Potter now,” says John Bruce, Station Master of Goathland, the real Hogsmeade Station, which can be found near Whitby. “People do recognise the station. We get quite a lot of visitors, many of them are French or Japanese youngsters.” Steam trains run through Goathland every day during the summer. Despite leaving from the same terminus, getting there is a trickier business than Harry’s journey to Hogsmeade, explains Bruce: “You have to go from Kings Cross to Darlington, Middlesbrough and then down Whitby line, with one change.”
