In the "Sound of Music" (filmed in 1965) there's a scene involving an operating cog steam locomotive. Does anyone know where this was filmed? And if the locomotive still exists?

The scene was filmed on the Schafbergbahn in Austria. The railway still exists and still runs steam, both antique and modern light oil fired.

I do not have the movie in front of me but according to the note on steamlocomotive.info, this is the locomotive now preserved in a museum.
