I think getting GSM-R BTS equipment is more difficult than regular GSM BTS
equipment.  If you want to play with GSM-R from the network side, your  best
option might be to implement the NCH and ASCI support inside OpenBTS.

>From the telephone side, you can simply use OsmocomBB. It can use a standard
GSM handset like the Motorola C123 and talk to GSM-R BTSs.  Of course you still
need to implement the GSM-R specific features on layer 3 like ASCI.

In both cases I think the hardware is there for whoever has a serious interest 
in
experimenting with this technology, and who is not afraid to implement the GSM-R
specific bits.
