It was 65 years to the day since the Queen acceded to the throne following the death of her father, George VI, on February 6 1952.
As she has in previous years, the Queen spent Accession Day privately at Sandringham.
At King's Lynn station, the Queen appeared to have fully recovered from the heavy cold that blighted the start of her break and forced her to miss church over Christmas.
