'For The Fallen' Train Remembers WWI Heroes
More than 100 years after British troops left on trains to fight in the First World War, modern-day soldiers have gathered at King's Cross station in London.
They've been welcoming the arrival of a special train from Berwick-upon-Tweed, carrying veterans and reservists from the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers.
The guard of honour they performed was a tribute to all soldiers who died in the conflict.
Troops performed guards of honour at every station
Almost one million British military personnel were killed in the Great War, including troops from Empire colonies Canada, Australia, India, New Zealand and South Africa.
