Big peak gap in services to Bletchley from December - why?

Playing with the journey planner, I note that the Bletchley call is
removed from the 1913 EUS-Northampton from December.  This leaves a
gap from the painfully slow 1854 (or the quicker 1849) to the not much
quicker 1924.

Does anyone know why this is?  The train is quite busy and only a
4-car, but is no more overcrowded than other services.  It seems an
odd gap to leave at what is still a busy time, especially after the
removal of the 1904 last year.

(It is good to see the 1824 problem sorted out by removing the Harrow
and Hemel stops and inserting an 1820 semifast[1], though it does
create an odd pattern in that it will now call at Watford[2], Kings
Langley (or was it Apsley?  Not both, though) and Cheddington!
Annoyingly, though, it will arrive at Bletchley 5 mins later than at
present.)

[1] Which curiously stops in most places...except Bletchley!

[2] I think there is a seriously good case for the stop at Watford on
that specific train to be "u".
