While expectations have been raised a notch or two recently regarding the re-instatement of regular passenger trains, charter excursions continue to run across the Sutton Park line almost every other week. Here the empty stock known as the Hogwarts Express is seen blasting past Branton Hill on the dark evening of Thursday 16th July.
The ex-GWR engine is 5972 Olton Hall, aka "Hogwarts Castle" as seen in the Harry Potter films...
The train was getting a free wash in the heavy rain that had begun falling an hour earlier.
