I think Kevin is correct for the most part they dress traditionally. I did have an instance on a winter charter where a fireman wore an orange coat, which looked bad, but otherwise regular RR attire. I do not see why a bunch of extra props are needed for something like this. The idea is to see and enjoy the action of some very old locomotives that rarely get to operate on mainline Narrow Gauge trackage. Its not a Hollywood production needing actors. The fact the engines are there to enjoy should be good enough! Orange jackets aside, perhaps!
