President to meet the Queen

摘要

President has started a 300-mile return journey from Staffordshire, where the unique steam-powered freight carrying boat was built in 1909, to London to take part in the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Pageant. The journey, commissioned on behalf of the Lord-Lieutenant of Staffordshire, is being sponsored by Staffordshire businesses JCB, Michelin, Wedgwood and St Modwen - and President is carrying sample cargoes from all four: a mini-excavator, a tyre, a steel swan, and a Diamond Jubilee china set respectively.
