I wouldn't say it's a particularly regular thing at it's certainly not happening, at least to my knowledge, from first thing in a morning. As tinytears87 explained earlier on in the thread, as some SRs are now back in the garage for mid morning due to new duties on the 32/As and split shifts for drivers, this means that they're available to go out if they're needed. Therefore, what you'll find is that, if they are slipping onto the likes of the 89, it'll be to cover significant late running or a breakdown. Obviously, where they can, they're going to try and allocate a full size vehicle to the service but sometimes, what's actually left in the garage doesn't permit for that.
