Prefects

[Bugg]

No: HPFGUIDX 16371

I suspect three prefects from each house. A 5th, 6th, and 7th 
year. Head boy and girl may or may not be prefects first/still. It is 
unlikely that Percy was prefect in his fifth year over all the 6th 
and 7th years. [if only one prefect] Such a grand bathroom for only 4 
students? [probably not]  That would mean a total of 12 prefects. 
That would be 6 per compartment on the Hogwarts express. [If they all 
took the train in]

at least.  Also, in PS, Chapter Six "The Journey from Platform Nine 
and Three Quarters" (p. 72 UK paperback-edition), the following 
appears (it's Percy talking):

have got two compartments to themselves-'" ... 
If there were only four Prefects plus Head Boy and Head Girl, they 
would need only one compartment. If you have eight prefects plus Head 
Boy and Head Girl, they fit nicely into two compartments, with a bit
> of room to spare.  If Head Boy and Head Girl are included in the 
eight prefects (but I don't think they are - just a gut-feeling), 
they still need two compartments.
