After a nearly hour-long procession the funeral will finish with two-minutes of silence. The Queen’s coffin will then travel through London, down The Mall and past Buckingham Palace. The coffin will be transferred to a hearse at Wellington Arch before arriving at St. George Chapel.<\/p>\n

According to the ABC<\/a>,\u00a0<\/em>a smaller service with 800 people will occur inside the chapel as the coffin is lowered into the royal vault.
