The Florida East Coast and Seaboard diesels look nice... don't know if they are operable.
That museum has a nice collection but too much is outdoors and will deteriorate outside in heat, humidity and hurricane weather.
Hope they are not scrapped.
Too many museums don't have enough indoor storage space or restoration money and a lot of their collections are just not salvageable.
I noticed Sierra Hotel PV Dome Observation is for sale.
Since Amtrak started banning most private cars they have become too expensive to maintain without charter revenue so if they don't end up in museums or shortlines they are doomed.
