NO WAY?! Weekend service on the Milton line after nearly 30 years?!

Today is Saturday, August 3rd, the day of the Toronto Caribbean Carnival. GO Transit has made an agreement with CPKC to run more weekend trains for today only, with those shown in the video departing at 9:36 PM in the night, and early in the afternoon, respectively. Will this eventually lead to two-way weekend service? Let's find out.

Consists:
9:36PM Westbound GOT 371 (CEM cab car) with MP40PH-3C locomotive 643 pushing. 12 cars.

4:36PM Westbound GOT 303 (CEM cab car) with MP40PH-3C locomotive 633 pushing. 12 cars.

The comsist with locomotive 643 was deadheading westbound in the morning and eastbound im the afternoon. Unfortunately, I didn't catch it either time. They should've put that deadhead run in service and allowed for two-way service!
