Fee

Fees are penalties that must be paid at the Career Manager. While unpaid fees exist, licenses cannot be purchased. They can be caused by:

• Damage to cars
• Damage to cargo
• Damage to locomotives
• Damage to environment due to cargo damage
• Damage to environment due to locomotive emissions
• Use of consumables in locomotives, such as diesel fuel, oil, coal, water or sand.
