236 has been sighted by a friend of mine at SOHO this week. No idea when it moved.
Not Questioning your friend in any way, but 730226 has been coming & going off Soho all week on the ECS to Crewe. Most moves out of Gascoigne Wood usually get noticed by contributors on this Forum and subsequently get a mention. Personally I hope that 236 is on Soho as It's been a boring week with 730225 seemingly not yet ready for Frontline Service.

730225 had it's Debut in Service Monday (29/09/25). See Post No3598. I was hoping to get a ride on it this week. It was allocated 1st thing Tuesday Morning (30/09/25) (when I checked at 0515) to work Northampton to Euston, but it didn't. I assume it is not yet ready for some Reason.

Edited because it was this week not last week.

Can anyone point me towards the latest full diagrams on MKC/BLY/TRI - EUS services? It's difficult to know if the 10 car that appeared on the 0747 (WFJ) service today was a blip .. or are we finally seeing more than a single 10 car service in the morning peak towards Euston.

It looks like they introduced one more 10-car diagram this week, making it 6 in total. Some are reduced to 5 cars in the early morning and late evening.

Based purely on observation, this seems to be the intended pattern for this week.
