The longest route in the U.S. or Canada that does not require a change of trains or accommodations is the Canadian from Toronto to Vancouver.  The distance is 4,466 kilometers or approximately 2,791.25 miles. Amtrak's top five long distance runners are the Texas Eagle from Chicago to LA (2,728 miles); the California Zephyr from Chicago to Emeryville (2,438 miles); the Southwest Chief from Chicago to LA (2,265 miles); the Empire Builder from Chicago to Portland (2,255 miles); and the Sunset Limited from New Orleans to LA (1.995 miles). Prior to the discontinuance of the New Orleans to Orlando segment of the Sunset Limited route, the Sunset was the longest Amtrak route that did not require a change of trains.  The distance was 2,764 miles. This information was obtained from the timetables posted on the ViaRail and Amtrak web pages.  The distance for the Sunset Limited when it ran from Orlando to LA was obtained from an old Amtrak timetable.
