"ATSF 2926 will need to partner with Amtrak or BNSF to lease a locomotive to use behind the steam engine when they are pulling passenger cars."
I am guessing the "passenger cars" will be similar to those on the 4449 excursion to Bend in 2017. That train had a single Amtrak locomotive, a mix of private cars, and several Amtrak single level (Horizon?) coaches.
If they can establish a museum of sorts around the 2926 in Albuquerque (if the shops complex ever gets developed) maybe they can buy a few coaches of their own (preferably some heavyweights for a vintage 1930-40's appearance).
Look forward to seeing how things develop for this group in the coming decade.
