How can I board the Hogwarts Express?

The Hogwarts Express has stations in Diagon Alley at Universal Studios Florida and Hogsmeade at Islands of Adventure. Although it functions as a ride, it also serves as transportation between the two parks. Because it travels between parks, a park-to-park ticket or an Annual Pass is required to ride. Single-park tickets, including multi-day single-park tickets, do not provide access to the train.
