Both King Charles and Prince William were spotted wearing a black armband as they made their way down The Mall.
At least 241 people are understood to have died in the shocking tragedy in Ahmedabad, India.
Those at the parade also held a minute’s silence following the devastating crash.
Those wearing the bands will be the Prince of Wales, Colonel of the Welsh Guards, the Princess Royal, Colonel Blues and Royals, and the Duke of Edinburgh, Colonel Scots Guards.
A palace spokesperson said this is “a mark of respect for the lives lost, the families in mourning and all the communities affected by this awful tragedy”.
King Charles could be seen sporting his armband while he waved to crowds leaving Buckingham Palace.
Princess Kate was spotted beaming as she arrived with William and the kids ahead of the parade.
Hundreds of royal fans braved the early morning rain to queue for a good spot – covered in Union Jack flags and crowns.
They came prepared with umbrellas and rain coats after the Met Office issued storm warnings, as the UK is lashed byfloods, thunder and lightning.
Over 1,400 officers and soldiers, 400 musicians, 200 horses and 10 bands are taking part in the event.
This year marks Charles’ third Trooping the Colour parade as monarch.
Coldstream Guards are on display for the world to see, dressed in full military regalia, alongside a huge number of supporting staff.
It is the first time the Coldstream Guards have trooped their colour in front of the King, as the honour rotates between five regiments of the Foot Guards.
The parade today takes place almost five months before the King’s actual birthday.
Charles was born on November 14, though the reigning British monarch has two birthdays.
The sovereign’s birthday, which is celebrated through the Trooping the Colour, usually falls in the summer months.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer posted on X this morning: “Sending my best wishes to His Majesty The King today at Trooping the Colour.
“God Save The King.”
