LEGO Harry Potter 4841 Hogwarts Express

LEGO set 4841, Hogwarts Express, depicts the train associated with journeys to Hogwarts in the Harry Potter theme. Released in 2010, it contains 647 pieces and belongs to the range of sets covering locations, vehicles and characters from the licence.

Hogwarts Express 4841 focuses on one of the most recognizable subjects in Harry Potter: the train connected with travel to Hogwarts. Within the Harry Potter theme, it represents a vehicle rather than a school building, and it is closely tied to departures, arrivals and student scenes.

The set contains 647 pieces and 5 minifigures. The character line up is Harry Potter with an open dark blue jacket over a white shirt, Luna Lovegood with a dark pink jacket, Ron Weasley with a red tartan sweater vest, Draco Malfoy with a Slytherin sweater and crest, and Ginny Weasley with a Gryffindor sweater and crest.

This set suits builders who want a Harry Potter display or play scene based on travel to Hogwarts. For collectors, it offers a vehicle centred entry in the theme, contrasting with sets based on classrooms, halls or other places. It can stand on its own as a licensed train model or sit alongside other Harry Potter sets to suggest a broader school setting.
