No, in some games the cost for various tokens change.  For example, in
1850 the edge tokens are $50 rather than $100, and cannot be the sole
station on a route.  In 1846 the fourth token for the B&O and PRR (and
maybe CO, I don't remember off-hand) costs $100 if used normally or used
as a teleport token to its reserved slot, but a different amount (varies 
for the company) if it is placed there when they have connectivity.  
Several games have destination tokens that may be placed at the normal 
cost or placed for free if associated with a destination run (which may 
take place outside the normal OR sequence as a special run or may be one 
of the normal runs).

And a minimum -- minors must have at least one and majors must have at 
least two.
