Since Harry Potter, I alway's enjoy going to King's cross on the 1st september to go back to Hogwarts. I just love watching Muggel's who pretend to be wizard's trying to get on the platform. Ahh.. Muggel's? they never learn do they ;]
this is not right. platforms 9 and 10 do not have an actual platform in the middle. rowling got confused with another station. you can see here it isnt in the right place.
@DevourTheDarkness Rowling said in an interview that she got confused with Kings Cross and London Euston when writing the book, in fact neither have platforms 9 and 10 next to one another, they're separated by train lines in both. It's thought she got confused with the numbering in the station and thought that 9 and 10 were like the ones in the main building (9 and 10 are in a seperate more modern nit), so for it to look that, during filming platforms 4 and 5 were renumbered and used :)
in the words of Ronald Weasley, bloody hell, I've been using kings cross for years and years and I still haven't tried to get through platform 9 and 3 quarters?
I must do it soon before I'm too old for Hogwarts... (I kid, your never too old)
it was actually filmed in Kings Cross Station but between platforms 4 and 5 not 9 and 10 cuz aparantly theres a track goin through 9 and 10 .. j.k. rowling apparantly got them mixed up & was actually thinking of Euston Station when she wrote the book... oops! lol
hahaha thats funny cuz i though exactly the same xD but we dont have to worry something huge is coming for us Wizarding world of harry potter and think we are gonna find more than a platform Hogtwarts is enough?
This platform sign and 1/2 a luggage cart bolted to the wall were placed in this spot by station employees simply due to space availability and with the anticipation that tourists and HP fans would flock to it like moths to a flame, creating a congestion problem, they put it here, in a more out-of-the-way location.
The actual location that was used for filming Platform 9 3/4 in King's Cross Station is between platforms 4 & 5. I was there in Sept 2005 and the view was instantly recognizable.
I went there with my Ranger group, we (including the leaders) all ran up into that wall at the exact same time! It was awesome. Oh, and I held onto the trolley and ran on the spot trying to get through. We had photos there. It was awesome. :D
Oh man! You guys are so cool! I seriously wish I was there with you at that exact moment. That's the only reason I want to go there. I am SO JEALOUS OF YOU!
That isn't at kings cross, the platform gateway looks nothing like that.

ummmmm . . . . . . . . nope. This sign and trolley are bolted to the wall outside of the part of the station that houses platforms 9, 10, and 11.
The ACTUAL spot that was used to film HP going through the wall is between platforms 4 & 5 at King's Cross. Really!
