✅The train was impossible to stop today.
💡use 'unstoppable' only when something keeps going with overwhelming force or success, not for an ordinary delay or movement.

✅Our team looks even stronger this year.
💡'unstoppable' already expresses an extreme point, so it is not usually used in the comparative.
