Buffer Stops - Costs

[Technologist]

Pretty simple question (I have searched), what is the approximate cost of a set of friction buffer stops like the ones shown here?

And then the approximate cost of the hydraulic buffers on their own without the attendant civil engineering?

No proprietary information required just an rough order of magnitude cost.

That would get complicated with NDAs and security assessments, I'm just after a guestimate to support doing that.

Perfect, thanks.
