TRAIN TIME: My 2025 Halloween Train Layout

I haven't done many TRAIN TIME posts this year but I have been busy out in The Cave with the 3-rail O-gauge layout just the same. As well, I put up another Halloween display in the living room. I wasn't going to do one this year but my granddaughter said, "Opa, why don't you set up your trains for Halloween and you can use your Harry Potter stuff". Ummm, okay. 😊 So here it is. I don't have a LOT of Harry Potter stuff to flesh out a 4'x6' train board but I think it turned out okay and in spite of me initially not wanting to do a layout, I've had fun running it.

Overview


It does look a bit empty - guess I'll just have to buy a lot more LEGO Harry Potter kits!! 😁

The Forbidden Forest


I have another LEGO Forbidden Forest related kit on the way and it should be here in another day or so.


Not having a proper Whomping Willow, my Flying Ford Anglia is caught up in a Playmobil Lion King playset tree.

Tucked away in the corner is the LEGO Room of Requirements. I really need more LEGO Hogwarts buildings


New for this year is the Lionel Halloween-themed Covered Bridge with artwork from Angela Trotta Thomas


The Village



The Gringott's coin bank was blogged in December 2023.





I have the LEGO 'Hogsmeade Village Visit' set but haven't yet posted it here on the blog. This is the backside to 'The Three Broomsticks'


Aside from the LEGO figures, these were the only ones I pulled out of The Cave
