Was there any steam locomotives rostered during the BN as excursion locos or other purposes? Did any survive from the lines consolidated into the BN?

They broke it in between Portland and Longview WA and hosted the return to steam trips on the former SP&S between Portland and Wishram WA and trips between Portland and Astoria OR. But Otto is correct it was never BN property.
