Class 92's on the E.C.M.L.?

Coming out of Grantham on a train for Nottingham at 16:36 today, we were overtaken by 92022 on a long rake of what I believe to be rail carrying wagons. Does anyone know if class 92's are commonly seen on the E.C.M.L., or is this likely to have been a one-off?
M.T.I.A., 62440.

I was at Peterborough on 18th August, and 92026 passed with a similar train at 16.44 heading north. I'm not familiar with recent (ie: the past 20 years!) workings in the area, but I don't think it's THAT unusual, although probably not THAT common!

There is a class 92 working on the ECML that runs North bound, on weekday afternoons I understand this is 4E32 Dokkands More to Scunthorpe. The wagons are steel coil carriers. This train used to run in the evenings, but has run in the afternoons since the North London Line timetable change. This is the only 92 hauled working I know of on the ECML

Thanks for that markb846, I'm just a bit puzzled by seeing it on a Saturday afternoon, or does Saturday count as a weekday nowadays? Cheers, 62440.
