Many of the VIA RAIL FPA-4's I shot in 1987 in Canada were saved and now live in the U.S.A. Napa got some as well as Grand Canyon, plus others are scattered all around. I rode the cab of one on the Potomac Eagle in 1995.
There was also one on the Western Maryland Scenic that was a lease unit(no longer there). They gurgle along like any other Alco!!! Oh and they smoke, but not as nice as a good old coal-fired steam engine!!!
