Operation Unicorn has been launched as a result of the Queen’s death in Scotland.
In advance of the complications of transporting the Queen’s coffin back to London, Unicorn initiates additional ceremonial ceremonies in Edinburgh as part of the long-standing so-called London Bridge arrangements for the aftermath of Elizabeth’s death.
As the military, clergy, and police focus on the enormous practicalities, the Earl Marshal in charge of the plans, along with royal aides and the Government, will be quickly adjusting the overall timetable to incorporate the Scottish element.
Many people want to know how the Queen passed away on Thursday afternoon at the age of 96 at her Balmoral Castle in Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
The Queen’s remains will be moved under “Operation Unicorn” from Balmoral Castle to her neighbouring palace, Holyroodhouse, in Edinburgh, which serves as the British monarch’s official residence in Scotland.
The public will have the opportunity to pay their respects at St. Giles’ Cathedral in Edinburgh before the Queen is taken there, according to The Mirror. Her remains will then be transported on the east coast mainline back to London aboard the British Royal Train at Waverley Station.
The plot would be known as “Operation Overstudy” if she were to be carried by plane.
Despite the fact that Prince Charles, 73, must be named the new monarch the day after the Queen passes away, he is currently acting as king.

In-depth information about the plans for Operation London Bridge leaks in 2019.
They describe how the Prime Minister received a phone call announcing the Queen’s passing before anyone else outside of Balmoral and Buckingham Palace.
Since the plan’s inception in the 1960s, there has been speculation that the code “London Bridge has fallen” would be used to indicate Her Majesty’s passing; however, this has not yet been proven.
