The rail fares seem to be expected demand-based.
Bought Vistadome tickets within an hour of departure at Ollantaytambo and it costs USD 60 a person (price hadn't changed). Train wasn't full.
The Expedition coming back, bought a month in advance, was USD 70 a person and was sold out day after we purchased.

Not sure when OP was there but it was sunny on 12 November. The 9-month spell of gloom is ending for the austral summer.
