The locomotive and cars are still owned by a member of the Bothwell family. It's currently in Newport Beach CA well along in its restoration back to operation. It's even receiving a fairly historically accurate restoration.
As a side note I remembered riding on the locomotive in the late 80s along the multi gauge, 5 rail track, through the orange groves in Woodland Hills. It was a pretty cool unique backyard railroad for sure.
