    Well, almost! The article by Eric Hannsman about the glass industries in Morgantown, WV is practically identical to the railroad I am currently building in my basement. I thought Eric did a great job with that article. Both of us live in Morgantown but designed the layouts completely independently. Mine is in a 10X20 room with open staging at one end so I don't have any helixes, but the rest is remarkably similar. My Sabraton branch runs into the next room. All the rest is pretty similar. The nice thing about modeling Morgantown is that both the WM and B&O shared the track and I can drive down town and walk the right of way as it is now a bike trail. Many of the buildings still stand. Once I have a few more structures built I hope to write an article and submit it to a magazine with Eric's photos. I thought this year's MRP was the best one yet, for obvious reasons. - Nevin
