Recommendation: meh 4.5 / 5 from 5 reviews

This set is retired and is now a collector's item. Indeed, even the latest iteration of the Hogwarts Express is out of production (#4841) so prices are rising on all models. For the latest pricing it is wise to check Bricklink.com (which is the main market for old Lego). This is the second of four Hogwarts Expresses produced since 2001 (4708, 4758, 10132, and 4841). It includes an engine, carriage, and small station platform with a baggage trolley. There are four mini-figures including Harry, Ron, Prof. Lupin, and a Dementor. There is an owl and a rat (Hedwig and Scabbers). There is no tender. The carriage top lifts off for access, and the engine has a hidden area for accessories. The main drawback to the model is that it uses very old train wheels which are functional, but don't run on Lego track. If you want to run the train on track, I recommend searching for the last two versions of the train which have the latest wheels.
