her maj the queen had to wait on a railway platform as the Royal Train ran ten minutes late.
But while the situation may be familiar to most of us, this was the first time Her Majesty had been forced to wait around on a platform.
And with nowhere to go for a quick cup of tea, it meant the Queen, Prince Philip and other VIPs had to wait patiently under a shelter on their way home from the 150th Great Yorkshire Show.
Her train eventually arrived at Hornbeam Park station, just outside Harrogate, and let the Royals board – but not before the Queen had repeatedly peered down the tracks to see where it was.
the queen just looked totally baffled – as though she had never had to wait for a train before in her life and It just shows that trains, even when they are run exclusively for one person, can’t be relied on to get somewhere on time!
It is thought to be the first time the Queen has been kept waiting so long on a platform for her own train, although it has turned up slightly late on previous occasions welcome to the real world your majesty
