Found a 2008 article in the Mesa news. Citizens didn't want to let 2355 go.

Carrizo Gorge Railway made a bid?? What the?

News
A California-based company expressed interest in buying the train in April 2006. Carrizo Gorge Railway officials said they would restore the engine and place it on display in a railroad museum, where visitors would be able to ride it. They offered to pay Mesa $5,000 and all costs to move the train to their museum in El Cajon, Calif.

The Arizona Railway Museum in Chandler also expressed interest in the train in May 2006, and a second California company, the Niles Canyon Railroad Museum, has also made an offer to buy the train.

But public outcry put a halt to the deals, and the Mesa City Council began investigating options to restore the train.
