Operating Costs
From Mashinky
Vehicle operating cost depends on several factors:
- Vehicle type
- Fuel cost preset on Game Settings page
- Age of the vehicle
Vehicle types
Each train engine has base cost, shown in depot on the vehicle purchase tab and on the info tab in the train window. Base cost is shown doubled if fuel cost is set to Higher. Operating cost applies only to the engine, the wagons are (at this time) maintenance free. In the case of multi-engine train, the operating cost applies to each engine separately and independently.

- Default - Base fuel cost is charged every 5 game ticks
- Higher - Double amount of the base fuel cost is charged every 3 game ticks
