The Old Dog has seen several suitable locomotives advertised in MR. A 4-4-0 for passenger and a 2-6-0 would do the trick. Several companies make or have mode suitable 4-6-0 and 2-8-0's.
As for freight cars, Roundhouse and Atlas make 36' reefers or boxcars. Roundhouse used to make 60' open platform passenger cars.
Many suitable buildings are available.
So go at it, and Have fun
