-----Would the Silk trains the CPR carried be considered a Unit train since
the cargo, origin and destination points were the same? These were
extremely fast freights without switching en route, and IIRC, always
destined for New York via Prescott, Ontario...

No, because a unit train is made up of identical rolling stock carrying one
commodity from "A" to "B" with no reblocking nor setting out nor picking up
en route.
