The 'choo-choo' in informal British English is a train. This is the term that is used to refer to a train when one is speaking to children. The phrase is derived from the sound that the train makes when in motion.

Is the queen English?

The expression "the Queen's English" refers to an imaginary standard of language spoken by the British monarch. The expression was/is only ever used in the negative - as a contrast to someone's manner of speech. The actual style of English spoken by the Queen is a particular form of upper-class English and is somewhat old-fashioned. What it really meant was that the person using the phrase looked down on the vocabulary and grammar being used by the person or people referred to. The wonderful thing about English - which some people in other countries envy - is its ability to adapt and move on with changing times. It is a living langauge, which changes with the decades. "Proper" English is anything which allows the speaker to communicate effectively with their particular audience at any given time. We all speak differently to our grandparents than we do to our friends.
