Platform 9-3/4
Well, I supposed this would not merit a post by itself if not for Harry Potter.
Went to the railway station at the city centre yesterday to buy the Young Person's Pass (ok, I am not young, but mature students are also entitled to it) which will give me 30% discounts on trains tickets. After that, I wandered on to the platform (apparently tickets only need to be shown after boarding), and was pleasantly surprise to see another familiar scene from Harry Potter. The photos are here:

Apparently, there is a real Platform 9-3/4 at London's King Cross station, which can be reached via a direct train from York.
