Mourners gathered in large crowds in central London before the start of Queen Elizabeth's funeral on September 19, 2022. The Queen's oak coffin, covered in the Royal Standard flag with the Imperial State Crown on top, was placed on a gun carriage and pulled by naval personnel to Westminster Abbey for her funeral. Transport chiefs said one million people were expected in central London for the funeral, while police said it would be the biggest-ever security operation in the capital.
