I'm contemplating buying the loco from the Harry Potter set - over here it's made by Hornby, and it looks kinda convincing - the paintwork and decals on the Hornby model are in the style of British Railways in the steam age (though the red paint was never seen on a GWR castle!). I just think it would be a kinda cool way to annoy the purists - have "Hogwarts Castle" simmering away in the loco depot. <br /> <br />Note: Bachmann have the rights to produce models of the "Hogwarts Express" for the US market, while Hornby have the UK rights, in case anyone was confused. In my opinion, the Hornby model looks more realistic as the paint finish is better and the decals more realistic than the Bachmann example. Take a look at it on the hornby website www.hornby.com or at www.ehattons.com, both have decent photos.
