Tourist trains can be "anything that rolls" to a museum
with historical equipment.
As an example,the Santa Fe Southern uses a Flat car
with a railing around it,a ex-CNJ combine,a ex-CNJ coach,
Sometimes a ex-ATSF dome car,and finally a ex-ATSF
caboose! If the was any freight cars to be moved,
they would be picked up and brought to the interchange
along with the passengers.
The paint on the coach+ combine may look a bit weird
(turquoise blue and yellow lettering) the power a GP-10
(ex-CR)running on Bio-Diesel,painted in a quasi-ATSF
yellow bonnet scheme.
SFSR shares the track with NMRX from the Santa Fe depot
to CP Hondo where SFSR returns to it's trackage to run
to Lamy.
I'm sure we have cars that might not fit with what ever the
modeling plan is/was,they could be used as some kind
of "Tourist train" or special move(Steamtown moving from
Bellows Falls to Scranton)
with historical equipment.
