GWR 4-6-0 4021 King Edward prepared to haul the Royal Train following the funeral of King Edward VII 20.5.1910 - LPC postcard
Most likely photographed at Swindon prior to setting out for Paddington, on 20th May 1910 - or possibly a day or two beforehand.
This is not a King class locomotive, but a Star class, renamed for this duty, I believe.
