They’ve added wheels to some sections of the track so they can go on the roads now.
Usually it’s because the route goes between two different lines, so they roll the carriage onto a trailer and transport it to the other line by road and then it continues on its journey. Quite entertaining when you are a passenger!
It’s a bus-replacement rail service
Central line train with new/refurbished bogies. They transport them by road as it’s too hard to move them by rail to/from central line to Acton works due to different signalling and train stop systems.
It’s an underground overground service. It’s used by the Wombles.
Not sure why this particular Central line unit was on the road, but Allelys is well-known for ability to move massive things by road. Moving a single unit like this would be nothing compared to some things they’ve done.

Some [interesting case studies](https://allelys.co.uk/case-studies/) on their website.
This is Central line and I am not even surprised.
It’s a brain. A bus-train

You can’t leave anything laying around, the scrap man will take it!
The train is on diversion.
That’s nothing, I’ve seen GWR engines on the M25.

Uh, what are YOU doing here?
This is how they get them back to the start of the line.
This is cursed
Imagine seeing this pissed up
