Procession for Queen Elizabeth II on George Street, Brisbane

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    The logistics of a Royal Visit are necessarily complicated and a great deal of time was spent on the program, security, and transport arrangements. Everything was planned down to the minute. Traffic arrangements for the 1954 Royal Visit to Queensland were the sole responsibility of and were arranged by, the Commissioner of Police. At 2.30 p.m. the Royal Progress will leave Eagle Farm Airport on a signal from the State Director at 6 m.i.h. for Exhibition Grounds (Route 1, Map 1) via Lamington Avenue, (2.36) Nudgee Road, (2.40) Kingsford Smith Drive, (2.57) Breakfast Creek Road, (3.03) Ann Street, (3.11) Brunswick Street, (3.16) Lower Gregory Terrace where Cars 1 and 2 will accelerate to provide an interval of 75 yards between Car 2 and the Royal Car. A Mounted Escort will take up a position in the lead of and to the rear of the Royal Car. Cars 4 to 15 inclusive will reduce speed to enable the rear of the Mounted Escort to take up a position. The Motor Cycle Escort will detach itself from the Progress and rejoin the Progress at the corner of Roma and Makerston Streets. The Queen and her entourage of 38, landed in Brisbane at 2.15 pm on March 9, 1954. The Royal Progress took the Royal couple from the Airport to the Exhibition Ground; the Shrine of Remembrance and then onto Government House. The Queensland Police Motorcycle units were top and tail of the procession until it reached Lower Gregory Terrace, at which the Police Mounted unit slotted into a lead and followed the royal car through the streets of downtown Brisbane. The Motorcycle Unit picked up the tour at Roma Street and lead it out to Government House. Source: mypolice.qld.gov.au/museum/2021/09/14/from-the-vault-quee...

    He seems to be Joseph Plunkett's brother according to his wiki article.

    Ballymascanlon House was the home of "Katherine Plunket (born as Catherine Plunket; 1820 – 1932) was an Anglo-Irish aristocrat from Ballymascanlan, County Louth, a prolific botanical illustrator and the oldest person ever to die in Ireland, at 111 years and 327 days."

    There is a remark that "Title inscribed on verso in pencil, with note in ink "Note by James O'Donovan"." James O'Donovan seems to be assumed to be Seamus O'Donovan. Ballymascanlan House was the Plunkett family home, and O'Donovan was also sent a photo of Count Plunkett at the same time.
