Regarding the 'third rail'
In the 'Behind the Scenes' section it was noted that the railway-line followed by the Hogwarts Express has a third-rail. This is incorrect. The extra rail seen on Glenfinnian Viaduct during the films is a safety-feature used on many British railways at bridges and tight corners. If a trains' wheels come off the track, the third-rail prevents the derailed vehicle from drifting towards the outside edge of the corner. As such I have deleted the reference.
Behind the Scenes/Tonks
Edit
Tonks wasn't riding the train as an adult she was simply checking the train before it departed wasn't she? U-No-Poo 16:52, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
Deathly Hallows
Edit
In the newest trailer, does anyone have any ideal who the man standing on the railroads with his hand out is? I don't remember this in the book...--Bella Goth 02:42, July 6, 2010 (UTC)Bella Goth
- He is most likely a Death Eater. We theorize that this is a scene where Luna is abducted from the Hogwarts Express. --JKoch

Very good theory. I completely forgot about Luna being abducted from the train... Maybe I should reread the book, eh... =P--Bella Goth 04:40, July 6, 2010 (UTC)--Bella Goth 04:40, July 6, 2010 (UTC)Bella Goth
- Well... I agree that is a theory but I don't clearly remember the book stating anybody Death Eater on the H.E? I would've remembered this from the books but I don't. Oh well. Should we have a picture there showing the Death Eater about to "stop" the H.E.? KiumaruHamachi 01:24, July 12, 2010 (UTC)KiumaruHamachi
