I haven't seen the movie, but my understanding is that the locomotive is B&O "William Mason" no.25 built by Mason in 1856. The scene was filmed in back of the B&O Museum near the Charles Carroll Mansion. The depot is just a two-sided mock-up, based on an actual station built in New York in the 1880's! The engine is indeed lettered "V&T RR." Some production company jerk thought Virginia & Truckee was in the State of Virginia. The baggage car was one of the victims of the Museum roof collapse in February's blizzard. The coach is one of two the Museum had; one of which was also destroyed and the second , which was in the car shop and undamaged. By the way, this same equipment was used by Walt Disney to film "The Great Locomotive Chase" on the Tallulah Falls Railroad in 1956.
