Photos of Hogwarts Express Filming for Deathly Hallows
DH FilmLocation filming recently took place in Scotland involving the Hogwarts Express train for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. A freelance photographer has now posted photos on his public flickr, here or here in our image galleries of the filming where a camera was attached to a helicopter to get the overhead shots; others show the fabled train at Rannoch Station near Loch Rannoch, Scotland. Please note: no cast members were present at this filming.

I’m assuming set-up shots for the kidnapping of Luna, or perhaps to show just how lonely/empty the train is without the muggle-borns. Both would add weight to the story as a whole, and would be more emotionally engaging. The idea that it could be post King’s Cross at the end of the film is also interesting, I must say. :]
