| | Luggage Compartment
The Hogwarts Express DOES have a place for all your things, you know, so you don't have to drag them into an already-crowded compartment. Store your school trunk, your broom, your owl, and whatever else you brought with you to school in this, the caboose of the train.
Then scoot scoot to another compartment. This one's taken by the trunks. |

So he had lifted it aboard.
So he had thought it was a great success.
So he had also thought he could drag it to the luggage compartment easily.
He had been correct in his assumptions except the easy part. This luggage weighed what, a ton? The little first year pulled and pulled and pulled, but it moved too slowly. His happiness of success evaporated too quickly to be replaced by anger, and by the time he'd made it to the luggage compartment, he was flushed deep scarlet and there wasn't one dry spot on his body. He tied his luggage to the closest place, and it took all his will not to collapse there. After panting for a few seconds, he dragged himself out to find somewhere to sit.

The almost third year stopped before the Luggage Compartment and sighed, she looked around her if there were house elves around who could carry her Luggage but she didn't saw them... She sighed again, did she really needed to lift her luggage all by herself? Where were those stupid slaves? She looked again around her, not caring if her luggage might be too heavy for the little elves to lift, she didn't wanted to do it for herself, she was too good and too important to work! No, she was a witch now and she was in a really BAD mood at the moment, so she wanted to utter her frustration toward a innocent house elf, BUT THEY WERE NO WERE TO BE SEEN! "I HATE THIS!" Muttered Sonea while she tried to lift her luggage eventually, she needed to take them with her, all her stuff was inside that luggage! But, it was REALLY heavy and she had really a lot trouble with lifting it up. She worked almost ten minutes only to get one side of her luggage inside the compartment! And when she had done this, she was already panting from tiredness. This was really something for a house elf, and not for a witch like me! She narrowed her eyes and tried to lift the other side of her luggage inside the compartment, but while she did that she let fell her luggage ON her finger! She screamed and with a few tears in her eyes she put her hurting finger in her mouth and gave a angry kick to her luggage. But, it was inside the compartment so she was done here!!

Hogwarts RPG Name: Abigail L Blythe First Year | You have bewitched me body and soul, And I love- I love- I love you *THUD* the amount of personal property that Mack had in her trunk was ridiculous, she had barely gotten it closed, and she had to shrink a lot of so it would fit... But now it wasn't her problem at least until they got to London.
She quickly put her trunk and Rose's cage into the compartment and made her way to find where she was going to sit... Maybe the front cars this trip.

Sighs.
Her sixth year of magical education has finally come to an end... and it was just, to her, too fast. Time caught up with them in a blink of an eye. Next term she would be a seventh year... and that was already an awful thing to think about. After the ride on the Thestral-pulled carriage, Kat made her way to the train's luggage compartment. She didn't need her trunks of clothes with her in the Prefects' Compartment at all. Kat carried her trunk over and placed it inside the luggage compartment and left her toad, B.O.B. there as well. She didn't need her toad in the train with her anyway. She had made sure that it had enough food and water so that she didn't have to worry later on. B.O.B. would be okay. She wasn't going to be, though.
Ariana Logan had totally infected her with this depression disease. Oh well.
With all her things inside the luggage compartment, Kat made her way back inside the train. Just to get to the food trolley earlier than the others. It was usually crowded in there so... why not be first and avoid the traffic, hmm?

Having had great success with the whole getting-the-trunk-onto-the-train thing with his shoulder barging method, Tobias decided that he should use a similar method to get the trunk to the luggage compartment. Pulling the trunk was too much of a strain on his fingers, elbows AND shoulders, but if he PUSHED the thing... yes... yes that was a good idea.
Of course... he was at the FRONT of the train and the luggage was meant to go at the back... hmm. Well... maybe he could just try and go as FAST as he could. Bonus points if he didn't run over any students on the way there.
Tobias prepared himself, hands on the back of the trunk, almost as though he was in a starting position in a race. On your mark... get set... go!
It was remarkably easy to pick up speed. Okay... every time he reached the end of a carriage he sort of crashed into a door, but the carriages were long enough that it was still fun to do anyway. By the time he reached the end Toby was slightly achy from the collisions and the effort, but nevertheless in good spirits.
The more accurate kind of manoeuvring required in the last compartment was slightly more tricky, and Tobias had a slightly sweaty brow by the time he was done. But he WAS done, and Toby made sure his school bag was securely over his shoulder before making off to find a compartment.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Eliza Neladara Dawnsel Fifth Year | She hadn't realized all of the things she'd accumulated over the school year. It must have been all of that cleaning she'd done. Somehow when she'd cleaned, she'd ended up finding all sorts of neat little discarded items. Some she'd kept, but most she'd thrown away. Anyway, it had added to her belongings somewhat and she'd need to charm a bag or two so that she could bring it all home.
Lucky for her, the dolly cart she'd found at the station was working smoothly for her, which was really a surprise given how the rest of the year had gone. At least she could now hope to roll her luggage and owl to the train in peace. Here's to hoping the actual train ride will be as successful, she quipped to herself as she did her best to oomf her trunk into the compartment.
She gave a quick little goodbye to her owl, Luna, feeling she was ready to get the show on the road and spread her wings in a less crowded air space as soon as she possibly could, and made her way to the train.
