Then let me tell you what will happen in about 20 or so years.

Just as we are criticizing the Pittsburgh area railfans of the early 1960s 
concerning M11, as a railfan living in California, so to will you be 
chastised (collectively with all other middle age and older railfans) as 
being short-sighted for your failure to help save a Boeing-Vertol car at the 
Rio Vista trolley museum.

Is there any difference?
