What if Elizabeth II dies in Scotland? Here is the bottom of Operation “Unicorn”

When transport by train is not possible, it will be done by air, as part of “Operation Overstudy”.

The activity of the Scottish Parliament would also be suspended immediately to allow the Scottish authorities to prepare for the state funeral. It would take place ten days after his death.

Scottish authorities estimate that hundreds of thousands of people would come to Holyroodhouse to say goodbye to Elizabeth, the only monarch many Britons have known their whole lives. The plan for when she died in London is called “Operation London Bridge”.
