==Renovation and upgrade==
It is advisable to renovate the [[Trains]] which have reached 30+ years and [[Road Vehicles]] which have reached 50+ years to keep the fuel cost in check. * The renovation and/or upgrades does not happen instantly and until it is finished, you will be paying the higher fuel cost.* ''Hint:'' If you find yourself in a bind, especially if you play with "stop trains if no money" in [[Game Settings]] enabled, remember stopped engines don't cost fuel. So stop all trains, use the train list to find out which of your trains still make money (and other resources) and restart only those. Then you can bring your fuel guzzlers to depots in age order, with the oldest first, making sure to not move more trains you can afford to at any given time.
Lets [[Renovation and Upgrade|renovate]]!
PS. "Renovate" means just replacing with an engine of the same model as the old one (where you pay a reduced cost instead of the full purchase cost). You will often find the old model isn't available any more, and thus that your "renovation" turns into a "replacement". Both terms refer to the exact same procedure, however.
