Why long delays on A49 Sunday? What vehicle?

Was travelling back up't'North yesterday on A49.... Generally a good route where I find even lorries manage to truck along at over 50mph.

 

There was a long line of slow moving traffic as I reached Ludlow. Averaging between 35-40mph.  :(  :down:

I assumed it was a Caravan as I could not see the head of the queue.

 

Bit by bit I progressed forward in the convoy with cars turning off or managing to overtake cars that had left gaps.

 

Eventually (about 20mins later) thought I could see the hold up, low and orange which led me to believe a trailer of some sort.

 

As I moved closer I caught a better view...

 

Oh....! That looks Sevenesque!?  :suspect:

 

It is, It is! 

 

By'Eck it's a Cateringvan, :swear:  and being overtaken by a Lorry!

 

Shortly later I overtook the orange 7 with green central stripes that was accelerating like an slow  :arse: , to find a lovely clear road and made quick progress to Loton Park to catch the sprint lads first timed run.  :t-up:
