There is at least one helicopter shot of Savannah & Atlanta 4-6-2 #750, which is now on display at the Southeastern Railroad Museum in Duluth, GA. Obviously stock footage since the 750 hasn't operated since the late 1980s.

There is definitely a shot of a Royal Hudson soon after the race of the century. I couldn't get a good shot of it's number board, but it has to be 2860. The engine itself was completely devoid of any road markings or paint in general, and you could see where the crowns had been removed.
