LONDON, ENGLAND – The queue to see Queen Elizabeth lying in state in London was temporarily closed on Friday after reaching capacity. British officials warned of waiting times of at least 14 hours.
The 96-year-old queen died in Scotland last week, prompting an outpouring of emotion that drew tens of thousands out to see her coffin on its journey to London, and that has now compelled many more to join long lines to pay their respects during a four and a half day lying-in-state ceremony.
The constantly moving 4.9 miles long queue is snaking its way from Southwark Park, then along the South Bank of the River Thames, to parliament’s Westminster Hall, where some 750,000 people in total are expected to file past the queen’s coffin before Monday morning.
