This article appeared on the Devon Live web site today. I imagine it will do the rounds of most other Reach plc newspapers in due course. Of course the newspaper has to bring in a Harry Potter element!
It would appear to be an abandoned preservation project and is located somewhere in Suffolk.

An eerie 'Harry-Potter-style train' has been discovered, mysteriously abandoned in thick woodland. The rusting old steam engine, covered in cobwebs, is almost hidden in its secret location, deep in the heart of the Suffolk countryside.
It bears a striking resemblance to JK Rowling’s fictional Hogwarts Express. In the Harry Potter books, the train transports pupils to the wizard school from Kings Cross station's platform 9 3/4.
Urban explorer Steve Liddiard tracked it down after hearing rumours of a mysterious 'Harry Potter-style' engine deep in the woods The 36-year-old from Swansea eventually located the amazing vehicle completely hidden behind overgrowth.
And he's declared it one of his best finds.....
