Queen Elizabeth II Takes Train Back To London After Sandringham Trip

Queen Elizabeth II was recently spotted taking the train back to London from Sandringham.

The 91-year-old queen was photographed in her orange ensemble complete with an orange scarf, black shoes, and black handbag. She also had black gloves on to keep her hands warm. Queen Elizabeth II was accompanied by her bodyguard.

In two other photos, the queen smiled directly at the camera. In the second snap, she was seen stepping into the train with a huge smile on her face. This is not the first time that the queen took the train from Sandringham to London. Last year, she was even accompanied by Prince Philip during their outing.

But there’s something else about the picture that made headlines. A couple saw the queen at the King’s Lynn train station, and they could not help but stare at her. It appeared as though the couple was so star struck that they were unable to move until after the queen boarded the train, according to People.

Queen Elizabeth II spent the entire January in her hometown in Sandringham. She has been in Sandringham with Prince Philip since the holidays. The queen hosted a royal family celebration at that time, which also included Prince Harry’s fiancée, Meghan Markle.

After her month-long vacation in Sandringham, Queen Elizabeth II returned to London and was welcomed by a long list of things to do. Other than official engagements, the queen will also be welcoming the arrival of her two great grandchildren this year. Prince William and Kate Middleton are expecting their third child, while Zara and Mike Tindall are expecting their second child.

Queen Elizabeth II is also expected to attend the wedding of Prince Harry and Markle on May 19 at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle. Prince Harry reportedly scheduled their wedding earlier to make sure that Prince Philip – now 96 – could attend.

In October, the queen, as well as the other members of the royal family, will also be attending Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank’s wedding.
