It's always 1 September somewhere

Happy first day of Hogwarts! Because of course in the wizarding world, September 1st is magically always a weekday. ;)

I was just reading about the fans who gathered at Kings Cross to celebrate today (which is adorable) and ALSO I just learned that the departures board at Kings Cross today listed an 11:00 departure to Edinburgh "via Hogsmeade." (Photo here.) I checked on the Scotrail website, and yes there really is an 11:00 train from London Kings Cross to Edinburgh Waverley, so that's a real train, and the folks at Kings Cross are cool enough about the whole Harry Potter thing to put Hogsmeade on the official departures board. I'm dying. <3
