I've been reading that CN has recently started using distributed power on some of its manifest trains on the Montreal-Toronto route. Instead of two or three units on the head-end, these trains have a single unit on the point and another somewhere back in the consist. Some of these reports describe much longer trains too - for example, 41 cars between the two units and another 113 after.
On the weekend I observed M363-21 approaching Pickering Jct with a DP unit. The train wasn't all that long however.
