Pretty much as the title says, are there any dedicated Class 710 diagrams on the Mildmay Line? If so, would anyone happen to know what they are? If not, how often do they end up straying onto the line?
As an occasional user of the Mildmay Line - usually on the Clapham Junction end - I’ve never come across a 710 on the line, so I’d quite like to at least see one in the flesh, and maybe get a ride on one.
I haven’t got the full diagrams to hand but some of the services seem to be:
2N60 (07:18) Stratford to Richmond
2N83 (12:14) Stratford to Richmond
2N98 (15:52) Stratford to Richmond
2N51 (17:08) Richmond to Stratford
2N53 (17:32) Richmond to Stratford
Firstly as a sidenote, has anyone seen any 710s on the Clapham Junction branch? Despite finding a few services pathed as Class 710s on the Richmond branch, I wasn't able to find similar workings to [CLJ].
For anyone else interested in this matter, I’ve managed to collate two weekday diagrams consisting of the services pathed as 710s on the Mildmay Line. These diagrams also happen to match up with the observations above, so my assumption is that they're generally 710 operaated.
Please let me know if I've made any mistakes, and I'll try to get out this week to see if I can verify these diagrams.
If a service is pathed as a Class 378 while most of the diagram is a Class 710, it will be listed in red.

I hadn't managed to find any pictures of them in passenger service between Willesden Junction and Clapham Junction, so had assumed they were confined to the Richmond branch until now. I'll make sure to keep my eyes peeled from now on (not that a 710 would be easy to miss!).
