Production Cost of an Engine

[mlehman]

Yeah, that's a vague question. That likes asking how much the production cost of a vehicle is. Compact? Full-size? Pickup? SUV? Budget line? Or luxury brand? Pretty much everything in our hobby is an import when it comes to locos, so that simplifies things in that respect vs autos.

Somewhere between $70-180. That's if they produce something like 500 of them per run.

Trainman440, 

I'd say it depends on what kind of locomotive is being made.

Hi, does anyone know the production cost of an HO engine?

"Engine" is vague, so if you know of prod cost of any specific engine, please tell me. 

I was just curious...

Thanks!
