I think it's travelling at near walking pace, isn't it?

4mph apparently.  It probably would have been a bit dangerous to have something like that travelling down the motorway at 4pm in the dark, no matter how many flashing lights you have around it.

And generally you see a lot of very fast driving on the m4 late at night. Twats in audis. Bombing along at 120. Geniuses driving like that tend not to believe the signs saying obstruction ahead at 2am.

Could they not have made the much shorter journey to the train station, and whacked it onto the rolling stock?

It was probably a bit too wide to fit a standard gauge railway, notwithstanding the tunnels.
