Whatever happened to all of the equipment that was around in Hyannas in the early-to-mid 90's?

I was just looking through some old family photos and noticed a bunch of cool stuff they had around that I didn't realize at the time (I was 8, ok!!!) was just hanging around the yard. I believe the two orange engines got scrapped (I also just realized they were pained to look like the Great Northern Empire Builder train) along with another MBTA engine they had behind the yard.

I also remember seeing a steam engine tender. DId the CCRR ever have steam? Where was the rest of the locomotive?

Everything was sold off except three or four pieces that ended up in SEMASS Yard in
Rochester (The Catument Cafe coach, another coach and the ex-RDG RDC-1. One other
car was vandalized and badly burned and scrapped). The steam engine - 1455 - went
to Danbury.
