Whatever happened to moving trains by rail? How can it be easier to
stick it on
a low loader (not to mention the traffic chaos is will inevitably cause
as it moves
at a snails pace)?


Because as trains have become faster and more frequent there are fewer and
fewer paths for moving low-speed stock around the country. Would you
appreciate your 125mph train being delayed whilst a 40mph transfer of London
Underground stock limped into a loop ahead of you?
