For two special anniversaries King Charles III. boarded the train on Monday to visit the small town of Pickering.
King Charles III (74) clearly enjoyed his recent appointment in the small town of Pickering near North Yorkshire. For his arrival, the monarch took the opportunity to ride the Royal Train, which was hauled by the famous Flying Scotsman steam locomotive, which celebrated its 100th anniversary on Monday. “What a wonderful way to get to Pickering”, it says on the Instagram account of the royal family.
Charles relies on summery colors
Upon his arrival, Charles beamed from ear to ear to the crowd of townspeople and onlookers received him with cheers and applause. For his appointment, the king chose a beige suit, underneath which he wore a light pink shirt, a dark red patterned tie, a white boutonniere and a white and red handkerchief – a thoroughly summery look.
On site, he greeted the townspeople and also entered some small shops. In addition, Charles unveiled a plaque made for the 50th anniversary of the North Yorkshire Moors Railway.
