I can guarantee it’s not cheaper

Yeah, restorations aren't cheap, and the bigger the parts get, the more expensive they get. And it's not like you can hit up ye olde fireboxes-r-us anymore.

Depends on if you're in America, or a real first world country.

One won't be cheaper, the other has a high likelihood of being cheaper.

Also depends on your insurance. I pay $25 per visit, and even over a year when I went every week, I doubt it was more expensive than restoring a train lol.

And how much do you pay just to have that insurance? How much lower is your paycheck because your company provides insurance?
