Famous Harry Potter trolley from Platform 9 and 3/4 is going on tour - how to see it

The famous trolley from Platform 9 and 3/4 is a much-loved tourist attraction that resides at London's Kings Cross station.

But Harry Potter fans won't need to travel to the city to visit the popular prop, as one is set to go on tour around the UK.

A replica of the trolley is set to visit several train stations across the UK in honour the 20th anniversary of the first wizarding film - Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone, our sister site 2Chill reports.

From October 16-31 Potterheads can visit the following cities and snap a photo with their house scarf for social media: Edinburgh Waverley Station (16-18), Birmingham New Street Station (23-25), Cardiff Central Station (26-28), Belfast Lanyon Place Station (29-31).

Stuart Kirkwood, group property director from Network Rail, said: “The Platform 9 ¾ trolley in King’s Cross station is a fantastic attraction that boasts huge queues of Harry Potter fans daily.

"It’s been great to take this fan favourite to locations outside of London to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the film.

“We’re extremely pleased to add this touch of magic to these stations.”

As with the London Kings Cross trolley, visiting the attraction and taking your own photos is free, however you will have to pay to purchase an iconic house scarf picture taken by a professional photographer.
