Talk:State-of-the-Art Car

Lead image caption
I'm amused at the semantic justification of this revert: in which it's necessary to specify that the SOTA cars at the Seashore museum are on display in the caption. I suppose that I asked for it by asking "why else would they be at a museum" when I removed that part as unnecessary. But does it matter whether they are displayed, or in storage, or visiting for the weekend, or being used to transport people from the cafe to the parking lot? (I haven't been to Seashore since I was a kid, I can't recall what the amenities are like.) But let's say that it matters in what context the cars are at the museum.

In the spirit of WP:BRD I'm bringing it here for discussion. We have a photo of the cars. On a dead-ended track. With what looks like, I don't know, display signage of some sort next to them. The lead paragraph says, and I quote: "Since 1989, the two cars have been on display at the Seashore Trolley Museum in Kennebunkport, Maine." A reasonable reader can conclude that these cars are  on display, and in the additional spirit of MOS:CAPSUCCINCT (not to mention WP:THANKYOUCAPTIONOBVIOUS) I move that this is superfluous and provides no additional value.
