St. Pancras International
2 savesRecommendation by Lemi
In the films, St. Pancras International’s neo-Gothic exterior stood as the entrance to King’s Cross Station. It appears in two movies: once in “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets” where the Weasley family’s flying Ford Anglia takes off as Harry and Ron Weasley (played by Rupert Grint) attempt to “drive” it. Then in “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2,” Harry and his friends watch their children leave for Hogwarts 19 years later. The station is quite the stunner, considered to be one of the most beautiful in the world. After capturing some panoramic shots, head inside and wander through the shops and restaurants. St. Pancras also happens to house Europe’s longest champagne bar, so enjoy a few glasses of bubbly while you’re here!

Time to dash forward to the King’s Cross Station! It’s either I’ll smash my trolley while trying to run towards Platform 9 and 3 1/4 or make my way to the Hogwarts Express Train.
Erlian Railway Station Ticket Office
Day 1, thirteen hours after we leave Beijing the train pulls to a shuddering halt at Erlian, at the very edge of the PRC. The scenery since Beijing has been rather scarred by industry, but it's improving. The train bogeys are changed here as Mongolia uses a different track gauge to China so we've been let off the train for a few hours while the bogeys were changed. Took the opportunity to invest in some duty-free vodka (may be useful for bribing Russians). At five minutes to midnight, the train pulls out of Erlian to rousing music from the platform loudspeakers.
