Finding the Train

My favorite way that Harry and Ron arrived at Hogwarts was via the Weasley's flying car in Book 2: The Chamber of Secrets. For this model, I reconstructed the scene where Harry and Ron find the train tracks, and then the train finds them. The track comes out of the tunnel, then continues into a curve. The car can rock back and forth using a lever and a technic connector piece, making the model more interactive. I also have Harry hanging out of the car, while the car is tilted. The train can be removed from the track, or pushed further in or out of the tunnel. All this combined makes a realistic representation of the flying car ride to Hogwarts.
