Santa Fe Routes?

I noticed there wasn't a proper recommendation thread for good Santa Fe/ATSF routes, and I thought I'd start one. Especially sine K&L has a Santa Fe 3751 model on the way soon.

Obviously there's Cajon Pass, both 1990 and modern day versions (DLS and SoCalTrains respectively), along with the Mojave Sub which includes Tehachapi Pass. I might add my own recommendations here once I find more, but does anyone have any other good recommendations for ATSF routes to run with in Trainz 22?
 
Here's my list (WIP):

DLS:
<kuid:844571:101444> Amtrak Pacific Surfliner
(Download station, only route to have LA to San Diego but is in 06 quality)
<kuid2:184847:100056:2> Cajon Subdivision - 1990 Part 1: The Pass
<kuid:783073:16900> Raton Pass
(Payware route, likely exclusive to Trainz Mobile)
<kuid:559188:101230> Chicago Junction Railway V0.02
<kuid2:425968:100505:5> BNSF: Clovis to Lubbock - TRS 2022
<kuid:439337:104762> Roscoe, Snyder & Pacific - TRS19

<kuid2:425968:100505:5> BNSF: Clovis to Lubbock - TRS 2022(Very Good Route by Maxwerks he has another route he is working on that he is planning to Extend West from Lubbock Texas)
<kuid:439337:104762> Roscoe, Snyder & Pacific - TRS19

SoCalTrains:
Cajon (SoCal) Subdivisions - https://socaltrains.weebly.com/routes.html (lots of Missing Deps with this one even with everything installed and Downloaded from the DLS) Even tried this one my self and its very dated

Ah, thx! As for the Pacific Surfliner route, I could easily start up a DEM and do it all from scratch... but I already got enough to do as it is, lol

As for the link to the Quahog Sub website, I found an updated version which I'll update the link on.

Do you know of any other ATSF routes I could find for Trainz though?
 
I made a route called ATSF KC TO EMPORIA & THE HOWARD BRANCH REDONE. (THIS IS A DEM ROUTE IN KANSAS.) ON DOWN LOAD STATION 15 JULY 2025.
I made this route at the 1928 to 1935 in the Steam Era.

I finally found some time to give the session a try. Is it supposed to be programmed? It said for Opie to load three fowler boxcars with wheat, I assume the wheat is in bags. I saw the junction ahead set to go to the grain elevators where there were 6 boxcars. Even though the junction was set, I had a red light on the signal, but I was able to go past it. I coupled up to the first boxcar, then uncoupled the back three, leaving me with three. As I pulled back, I did not notice anything loading, so not sure if I succeeded, but the message to load went away. I backed out beyond the junction and the light, but then where? No further instructions were forthcoming. Am I on my own from there? The route looks great so far!
