It does happen. The Crown does not always travel with their herald.
Whenever you herald for the Crown, and act as Their voice, you wear the
kingdom tabard. Likewise goes for a barony, with the baronial tabard.

Since all heralds are multi-hatted (to use a military term indicating 
multiple roles for different entities), the tabard/badge/arms displayed 
by the herald depend on the specific role he is filling.  If a shire has

a function and the King arrives to hold court (without a herald) and the

shire herald is drafted to act as herald (unlikely), the herald should 
in theory be wearing the Kingdom arms on his tabard, but if the shire's 
court only includes the shire populace, then the tabard should bear the 
arms of the shire.  Or maybe I'm wrong<g>.
