I'm having a discussion on another forum about the intended location of this at King's Cross. Personally I think it's an entirely fictitious location like 221b Baker Street, and doesn't bear any relation to the real platforms 9 and 10 (which aren't in the main station). J. K. Rowling has been quoted as saying she was thinking of Euston; but platforms 9 and 10 are separated by tracks there, as they are at King's Cross.
The current "Platform 9 3/4" sign is ingenious, but clearly not in the location originally intended. Are there any theories about this?
