Londoners up in the early hours of Wednesday morning were treated to a full dress rehearsal of King Charles' coronation procession -- including five RCMP members riding just ahead of the gold state coach that will carry the King and Queen Consort to Buckingham palace after Saturday's ceremony.

Hundreds of troops, on foot and on horseback, marched to the sound of military bands under the cover of darkness, in front of a few diehard royal fans who stayed up all night for a coronation sneak peak. Canadian Armed Forces members could be seen marching alongside a Canadian flag, in a section of the parade featuring troops from around the Commonwealth.
Sgt. Maj. Scott Williamson, the riding master for the RCMP, said even participating in a dress rehearsal felt special. "It makes you realize this is a very big event, and we have a lot of pressure on us but we’re ready and willing to take it on."
