Prices are arbitrary and really just based on vibes. Companies with good perks can charge more, or if you are selling 10 or more a day you can charge a premium. Lowest I have seen them go for is 4/500k.

I think it depends heavily on the company type and star rating. I ran a 6 ⭐️ AN before, and people were willing to pay up to $1m per train because they had really low stats and needed the trains to work toward Principal (or a similar job requirement). The 6 ⭐️ AN also gave 2 E-DVDs, which at the time were worth around $9m/week, so that obviously made the trains more valuable.
I also had an 8 ⭐️ Pub, and I couldn’t get people to pay more than around $350k/train. So in my experience, you can’t really price trains based purely on a general market rate. The company type, star level, perks, and what the buyer needs all make a big difference.
