Answer

An itinerary is a travel plan.  You can say "train itinerary" or "train itineraries" (compound noun rules here), but I can't say that it's the same as "route". "Itinerary" can include several trains which make up a full journey.

Good question about the plurals being treated as singular. We do this to mean the plural functions as a single unit, ie. "in total".  If you use the plural are/were, then I'd think that each week/pound/litre was separate.

Answer

When you're dealing with numbers and measurements even distance, it should be singular.
