Sailors will have the honour of pulling this gun carriage - on which Her Majesty’s coffin will be borne into Westminster Abbey for the funeral service.
The state funeral gun carriage of the Royal Navy will be pulled by 98 sailors, known as the Sovereign's Guard.
It is a duty the Royal Navy has performed since the funeral of Queen Victoria in 1901.
