How often are these shipped from B&W?

I’m wondering if one may be shipped soon because 2 flatbeds like this, different from the ones used by IST, were eft at Alma Street recently. One in XW30, which remains, and one with the tankers in XW22. The one in XW22 was taken to Cambridge within the past week.
