In the movie "Changling" they borrowed the 2-6-2 and a few heavyweights from the Orange Empire Railway Museum. They were in various road names, but were filmed in such a way that the letterboards weren't really visible. They filmed the station scene at San Bernardino Depot. It was a matter of what was around and of appropriate vintage. Unfortunately, most of your movie people aren't train people and don't know what's appropriate for the location and era. The 2-6-2 went from Perris to San Bernardino under its own power, by the way.
