bboy_mn who teeters dangerously on the brink of Off Topic:
I'm curious, do you think the train from Kings Cross to Hogwarts goes
through Glasgow or Edinburgh. I alway thought Glasgow because after
studying maps of Scotland I decided that Hogwarts was in Northwestern
Scotland. But since it goes near Peebles which is near Edinburgh, it
would appear that I might be wrong. Although, I have great resistance
to admitting that I might be wrong.
I know to get to various destinations in the UK, you have to start at
different train stations. So from Kings Cross are you more likely to
catch at train to Glasgow or Edinburgh?
I based my guess on the location of Hogwarts but looking for isolated
areas with mountains and lakes, and the best area seemed to be
northwestern Scotland either straight north or northeast of Fort
Williams. Glen Cannich or Monadhliath Mountains seem like likely
areas. Keep in mind, I'm in Minnesota, so I'm drawing conclusions from
very limited knowledge.
Just curious.
