Without going political or partisan political, the Commonwealth of PA is in debt for millions of public debt and unlikely to fund any restoration any time soon.

Other than a private corporate funding or very rich benefactor, the sins of the past are exactly that. 

The only step I would love to see is an unbiased third party with heavy steam locomotive rebuilding (Strasburg RR or others) give a detailed estimate for operating restoration to an equally disinterested third party so that no "collusion" on the actual needs and costs could be made. 

That part would be interesting but like any estimate it costs money and the results of it can have financial gain for other parties.   Thus keeping it "honest" would be a priority.
