Really not easy as a route is a combination of start, destination and stations served. Something even a geek like me finds bewildering if I was to try to map rail routes.
Your average passenger just knows where a train is going, or at least where they are going. Trains are regularly split/merged/reversed on routes. A train to a destination can be on one of many routes, some may only operate weekly despite appearing to most as a regular service.
