I don't think the presence of ANY hazmat load makes a key train. It requires more specific conditions/combinations. See for instance page 49 of this 2009 document:
1168.utu.org/Files/[5266]Hazmat.pdf

Note: the link is not an active link due to the embedded square brackets, which are not compatible with the AP Board code formatting, so just copy-n-paste the text into a URL box, then go to page #49.
