OK I misunderstood what you were saying. However, it happened before under previous TOCs:
e.g. FNW using 150s with limited leg room and without catering on Buxton to Manchester to Blackpool services, but using 175s with ample leg room and catering on Manchester Airport to Blackpool services.
Also ATN using 156s and MetroTrain 158s without catering services on selected TP Express services, when the rest were run by designated TP Express 158s mainly with catering services.
