Railways celebrating the Queen's Diamond Jubilee
A train motor unit, named the Diamond Jubilee and adorned on each side with a Union flag, stands at Ipswich station as part of a London Liverpool Street to Norwich service.
The geometric construction of the flag is not quite correct though. A closer look at the corners shows that the saltires of St. Patrick and St. Andrew have been allowed to paddle around the corner. The edges of the saltires should meet on the diagonal line through the flag.

Freightliner offices, Ipswich
Ipswich is an important location for rail freight: trains from the port of Felixstowe either reverse here to head for the Midlands and north via Ely and Peterborough, or change from diesel traction to electric to travel to or via London, with corresponding arrangements for trains to Felixstowe. Therefore, many freight locomotives, particularly those belonging to Freightliner, can often be seen here, and these offices presumably contain train crew facilities. However, a north curve to allow trains between the Ely line and Felixstowe to avoid reversing at Ipswich is to open soon, which will reduce the importance of Ipswich in rail freight terms.
