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.
