I have the NS Reading Line from USLW, the Clovis Sub from Checkrail, the Montana Rail Link, and the CSX routes from Glenwood shops. Are there any other massive routes like these?

Check out Dave Snow's Ozark Valley. It's about a two hour straight drive, but there's lots of side activities as well that you can do. The route is an east-west route through the rural Ozark region with small industrial areas and cities scattered along the line. If you want, you can merge routes together as I did to make an even longer run. It requires a bit of planning and some tween boards, but you'll have one massive route that you can setup many activities on.
I took the Ozark Valley and combined that with the East Kentucky, Evansville and Western (Checkrail) then added this to JR's Midwest Grain to Dave Snow's Cotton Belt route and then this to George Fisher's Indiana Western and Watseka & Kankakee. This route takes about 6 hours to go from end to end and doesn't include any side switching you can do.
No, it's not for release.

Are you going to release that?
JK.
UMR is another big one. Its on the DLS and they tend to do a 24/7 MP session on that one.

No due to the third-party assets. It's not small either and I mean by file size and it takes about 5-7 minutes to load up. I ended up modifying the track here and there on a couple of routes to help with the run-through traffic, but other than that it works pretty well as it is cobbled together.

Also on Dermmy's website (Checkrail.com) is East Kentucky, if you have TS2010 you can get the Speedtreez version as well as the original, and if you're into long Canadian freeware routes, there is this one also - http://www.doug56.net/MBC_2010_Route/page35.html

I am trying to look for routes that enable me to run long-distance Amtraks and long freights. I am trying to look for route lengths that are at least a few hundred miles, preferably much more than that. Are there any other routes with that length?
Please let me know. Thanks.

Freeware: Download the UMR from the DLS; never checked the actual length, but it is long.route lengths that are at least a few hundred miles

All of these downloads must be free, and they must be in Canada and the United States.
