Rip off or fair call?

Just found out that to take a train from Cuzco to Aguas Caliente, the town by Machu Piccu cost approx 80usd return. Where as a local would catch that same train and pay 10usd return. Rip off or a fair call?

I think for tourist to pay more then the locals is fair, but to pay 8x more is a bit too much. Especially for someone like me, trying to stick to a budget, 80usd would be at least 3 day´s worth.

So, I am researching into a cheaper way in to see the biggest draw card of Peru.

Seems a bit of a rip off to me. Sure, charge a little more for tourists but not that much.
