> I wonder how much the UK paid for the LNER lines, e.g. from King's Cross up to Waverley Station in Edinburgh.
It's hard to come up with a definite single figure, because you'd have to go all the way back to the original railways in the 19th century and trace your way through all the upgrades that happened bit by bit since then, plus figure out how to handle inflation/purchasing power etc. across such a long time span.
