Ghostly abandoned ‘Harry Potter’ train found deep in Suffolk countryside

"The train still smells of oil and smoke even though it hasn’t been active for well over half a century

Newsroom October 18 10:12

A ghostly abandoned train has been found deep in the Suffolk countryside.

Urban explorer Steve Liddiard says he tracked it down after hearing rumours of a mysterious ‘Harry Potter-style’ engine hidden in woods.

The 36-year-old from Swansea finally was able to locate the amazing vehicle completely hidden behind overgrowth.

By day, Steve is a Senior Pathology Informatics officer in the NHS, but tracks down abandoned places as a hobby.

He explains: “The steam train was one of my best finds, hidden in plain sight.
