It depends on how they went flat and what exactly it was that punctured the tire. They may not be able to repair them at all if you drove on them for any period of time. (The sidewalls weaken considerably)

Unfortunately this is going to be expensive! You're looking at the cost of three new tires, mounting and balancing plus all the labor. Then you have the labor cost for straightening the rims, if they can be repaired. Otherwise they will have to be replaced. If they have to be replaced, you may have done structural damage meaning that the frame also needs straightened. You could easily be into thousands of dollars. On the other hand, you could be lucky and only need three new tires for a couple hundred dollars.

Call Sears or a tire shop in your area. No one here will be able to answer the question you are asking. They will ask you...what size tires? brand you want? what kind of rims? There are too many choices out there for us to tell you what the price would be.
I would find out whatever City you are in ...who owns the tracks and have them pay for it. If one tire was damaged then okay...but three? There must be something wrong with the tracks.

Depending on the year and model of your car. I have a 99' Monte Carlo and went to a junk yard for one rim that cost $75.00 Good luck. It would have cost over a hundred anywhere else

Next time, slow down over train tracks.
