Doesn't sound like they've come off the boat at Grimsby/Immingham/Killingholme if they've been spotted in Walsall and Preston.

And it's too dark now to track them off the live motorway cameras

Scotland for the journalists bun fight?

I think you're absolutely right - that same transporter was spotted yesterday morning on the M90 northbound twixt Edinburgh and Perth.

So where is said bunfight??
They are north of Grange Edinburgh and no dealers north of there.

Perhaps they will ship them to Iceland?

I think we lost our "direct" ferry connection a few years ago.

Ah, I didn't know, this is a pity indeed

Well it was a separate sailing from Aberdeen to Lerwick (Shetland Islands) to connect with the ship from Denmark.

I might be wrong and the service has been re-introduced, or indeed never cancelled (as I recall reading it was going to be).

Smyril Line used to do it.
The weekly service serves Tórshavn in the Faroe Islands, Seyðisfjörður in Iceland, and Hirtshals in Denmark. The crossing between Hirtshals and Tórshavn takes 38 hours in winter and 30 hours during the summer schedule. The onwards journey to Seyðisfjörður takes another 15 hours.[6] Until the end of the summer 2007 timetable, Smyril Line also served Lerwick in the Shetland Islands. On 11 November 2008 Smyril Line announced that it would end services to Scrabster, Scotland and Bergen, Norway.[7] On 1 September Smyril Line announced that it would end services to Hanstholm (summer) and Esbjerg (winter) in Denmark and move all its Danish ferry operations to Hirtshals.
