[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by tormadel Thank you LC. I think I have that one bookmarked but I will check. Couple of weeks ago I spent a few nights doing web searches (google and such) for "locomotive sale & locomotive lease" as I researched the value of locomotives. Found alot of websites for contact but veeeeeery little in the way of hard information. I'm reluctant to send direct inquireies to any of these companies as at this point I am merely education myself and I do not wi***o be a pest when I am not ready to talk contract at this time. I have more respect for business people then that (Lord I hate telemarketers, so mean to them). Ok nope, upon review that is a new one to me. Thanks again :) [/quote] Prices on just about everything are sky high right now. I just got a note concerning a GP9 in running condition for $75K. A GP38 will run you over $250K and even GEs are going for unheard of numbers as demand for them in South America and Eastern Europe increases. Track equipment prices are also heading up in a BIG way as new projects such as the DM&E and others demand available equipment. It is a difficult time to start a short line from a capital investment standpoint. Of course there are plenty of leasing companies willing to take your $$. LC
