Unless it's changed, an early-morning Silverlink service from MK Central (or
probably Bletchley these days on a Saturday) to Euston is operated using a
pair of 150s to get them from Bletchley depot to London ready to operate on
the Barking-Gospel Oak line.

The roughly two-hourly outer suburban service in/out of Euston in the
early hours used to "borrow" the Bletchley-Bedford and/or Watford-St
Albans DMUs if the juice wasn't available, so that's another possible
reason depending on when it was seen.
