Does anyone know where the FGW sleeper stock was going this morning?

It was seen top'n'tailed by two FGW 57s at Didcot Parkway heading north towards Oxford on the avoiding line. Was this a diverse route back to Laira avoiding the Berks & Hants and GWML?

No. It was posted on WNXX as being used as a service train from Paddington - Oxford and return vice a HST set this morning.

How odd- did passengers use the sleeper cabins as sort of seated compartments?
