On my way home from work today I passed a 185 carriage heading south on the M6 on the back of a low loader between Rugby (Junction 1) and Coventry (Junction 2) at about 16:15. Any ideas where it was off to and why?

Possibly as it was a driving car that I saw.
I'd suspect the same too. I did wonder what the outcome will be as to where it would end up for repairs.
I remember a few months back another train I think had had a disagreement with a tree (126? - it was in a previous thread of mine) so the leading carriage was shipped back to Germany by road for repairs, while the rest of it sat at the Piccadilly end of Ardwick depot for a number of weeks

it could be the one that hit a pile of rocks in Hexthorpe cutting on New Years morning... (106 or 113.... cant remember which.)
