According to sources on urban Toronto, they will indeed be deadheading the rest of the way to Kitchener. Track manoeuvres with other traffic means they can't have much hope for schedule adherence on that part of the line at that time of night, apparently.
I think beyond just schedule adherence, they expect the train will spend significant time sitting on a siding waiting for freight traffic. So I understand not wanting a schedule that involves taking an hour or more to get from Guelph to KW.
