Try network=US:US:Historic on your route relation. Might not render, but you can at least give renderers *something* for renderers to latch onto if they want that information. ref=US Historic xx seems to be the way tagging for that if you want to go that route. I recommend, until we can finally kill the route-tagging-on-way "ref=*" legacy method, to implement both, since it makes it more obvious if the ref=* tagging gets munged later.
