Taken from the NCoC
"Before you travel you must have a ticket or other authority to travel which is valid
for the train(s) you intend to use and for the journey you intend to make".
Since the royal train is managed by Network Rail and they own the rolling stock it may be assumed that the Monarch and her Consort have the correct authority under the NCoC since these are also issued by Network Rail. As for scheduled services I would imagine that tickets are purchased on their behalf by the Royal Household from the grant-in-aid which it receives for travel expenses each year.
