At one time they may have planned to connect both narrow gauge lines but that did not happen.
You have to take a bus between Huancavelica and Machu Picchu or Cuzco.

And have you checked these?

I think that you will be out of luck with regard to steam trains on the Cuzco - Machu Pichu route (also known as Ferrocaril Cuzco Santa Ana once upon a time). Most, if not all services, certainly those for tourists are by diesel rail cars. If you are lucky some old cars are still running, e.g. railbusses from Ferrostaal of Germany and I think they also had 1 or more from Japan. The Peruvians also build a number themselves. As for locomotives, Peru bought a lot of Alco's / MLW's. Including some for the narrow gauge lines of which Cuzco - Machu Pichu is one. A goal in themselves I would think.
There should be some narrow gauge steamers around, most probably on the Huancayo - Huancavelica line (an extension of the Central of Peru).
