Someone recently put up the idea that the MOM might be in the same 
zone as the main Real World Ministry district, a likely dropping off 
station would be Charing Cross; it's just a few minutes walk around 
the corner of Trafalgar Square into Whitehall. Looking at the time 
taken on the Hogwarts Express day, another area worthy of note would 
be around Mornington Crescent, which I seem to recall is rush hours 
only nowadays. Looking at my map of London, walking as a group would 
probably be slower and I think Chalk Farm or Camden Town would be a 
bit far. The Mornington Crescent area is also pretty seedy and run 
down.

Then Astrofiammante: 

I don't know if you listen to the quiz show "I'm Sorry, I Haven't a 
Clue..." on Radio Four at all, but if the object of the game is to be 
the first to shout 'Mornington Crescent' and so win, then I think 
you've claimed victory... ;- )) 

But seriously, a fine suggestion, I think. Also, it is a pretty small 
station, in a grotty area, as I recall, and one that gets fiendishly 
crowded first thing.
