  houyhnhnm:

  And what was he doing on the train in the first place?  It's a strange
  way for a fully qualified wizard to travel.  Maybe he was too poor to
  own a broom, but why not apparate or travel by floo?

  Andie:

  Maybe DD wanted Lupin on the train in case of something happening.

  He probably didn't think that dementors would board the train but he
  must have felt that having the DADA teacher on board Harry would have
  extra protection. 

  DD might have felt that since the dementors were sent to Harry's home
  town, what was going to stop whoever (Umbridge) from sending them to the
  Hogwart's Express.  

  DD knew what the dementors could do to Harry and he knew that
  Harry couldn't fight them yet. With Lupin there and his knowledge
  of DADA he probably felt that Harry would be relatively safe.

  Just my thoughts.
