When are Railroad Baron (Tycoon) cards scored, for example George Pullman's level 6 engine card?

The designer said this in 2006 and 2007, and the rulebook says Baron cards are scored at the end.

All Baron cards are scored together at the end of the game, not when their condition is met. A card such as Pullman's is revealed when you reach the goal so nobody disputes who got there first, but its points still count only in final scoring. Scoring immediately would change income mid-game.
