Royal Train saved from the scrapheap after Queen makes it known it is still her favoured mode of transport

Queen's beloved royal train is saved from the scrapheap as tests reveal it is still in perfect working order after 120 years

That second headline is deceptive as it implies that the Queen is still using the same Royal Train as was used 120 years ago. Obviously that is not true. I understand that the current set dates back to the 1970s and '80s, and uses Mk3 coaches.
