abstract	Silver Jubilee was an engine mentioned in Thomas and the Fat Controller's Engines. The 1977 Silver Jubilee was a series of national and commonwealth-wide celebrations of the accession to the throne of Queen Elizabeth II on 6th February 1952 following the death of her father, King George VI. The celebrations are remembered as a high-point in a more monarchist age before the scandals of the 1990s hit the Royal Family. In between an international tour of thirty-six countries, the Queen and Prince Philip toured most of the United Kingdom where the crowds who came out to see them numbered in their millions. The climax of the celebrations were from 6th to 7th June when on the first of those days the Queen lit the first in a chain of beacon bonfires that led from Windsor Great Park across all parts of the land and, on the second day, a national service of thanksgiving was held in St. Paul's Cathedral followed by a lunch in the guildhall. On that day, in many parts of the UK, roads were closed off by residents for traditional street parties. The Silver Jubilee was a named train of the London and North Eastern Railway.

They were pulled by A4 locomotives No.2509 Silver Link, No.2510 Quicksilver, No.2511 Silver King, and No.2512 Silver Fox.
