  1. There are organized clubs for the collection, restoration and operation of these vehicles.  Unfortunately, I don't know of any personally.

    But, here's your best bet to locate one, I would think.  In northern California there is an old railroad town called Dunsmuir.  Each summer they celebrate this heritage with their "Railroad Days Festival".

    One or more of these clubs attend this event, so I would suggest contacting the Dunsmuir Chamber of Commerce and ask for a contact with the Railroad Days committee, and that person should be able to provide contact information.

    Good luck.
