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.

There was a Class 150 in platform 1 at Watford Junction at about 2 o'clock
yesterday afternoon. Not sure if this was the same train though.

I've heard quite a few reports of 150s in Euston recently...When I was
at Euston on the 21st Oct, 150131 was stabled in Platform 17 -
