Hogwarts Express

The Hogwarts Express allows Guests to travel from park to park. Since the Wizarding World of Harry Potter spans across the two theme parks, this allows travel to occur more efficiently. Plus, it provides another unique Harry Potter experience!

According to Universal, Travel between King’s Cross Station in the London area of Universal Studios Florida and Hogsmeade™ Station in Universal’s Islands of Adventure. Each way is a different experience. From the thrill of walking through Platform 9 ¾™ to seeing characters and creatures featured in the films, this is not your everyday train ride.

Unexpectedly Closed

Unfortunately for those wanting to ride on Hogwarts Express, the train has been closed for three straight days. This will make the travel experience from Universal Studios to Islands of Adventure not nearly as before.

Hogwarts Express is closed for the third day in a row.

It’s worth noting the train is not currently listed on the refurbishment schedule, so we are not exactly sure why the attraction is closed. Perhaps there is a mechanical or technical issue that needs resolved.

What do you think about this closure? Will it affect your travel plans at all?
