Brian, as someone who worked on these national rail relations (and still does, to some extent, though only around the edges), I agree with you that "very large" relations (in Amtrak we say that one route is >2500 relations and meets that standard of "very large") do exist. And, they are

Excuse me, what is the limitation here against tagging "Extremely long Amtrak relations"? Some of those Amtrak services, while long, in my knowledge are still far from the longest in the OSM database, like they're shorter than the train route between Moscow to Pyongyang, which have been tagged as
