Owing to the recent boost in security for Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry, the School Train (The Hogwarts Express) has been upgraded to increase security going to and from the school. The Ministry of Magic advises all students to adhere to the following guidelines, in order to avoid punishment
Armed guards now patrol the corridors, students are advised to give them no reason to harm you, as severe force has been authorised
Any use of magic whilst on board the train may result in severe punishment
The guards have the right to eject you from the train at any time
Littering is prohibited
Muggle items will be confiscated and destroyed if found on a student's person
While this may seem dictatorial or "Evil" it is all for the greater good. We have seen, in the past, what effects complacency can have when young people are left to their own accord. It is because of this, we have decided to implement these new rules.

P.S. You will notice that the train has in fact received a new paint job. We chose to paint the train grey, as it will serve to better conceal your location at night.
