Although the HO layout in my basement is gone, the Allegheny Midland has not ceased to exist. A short segment of the AM main line is being built as part of Allen McClelland's new Virginian & Ohio layout, in fact, and AM motive power and equipment from the 1960s and '70s will one day soon operate there. Together, we continue to develop concepts for joint AM-V&O (and Virginia Midland, Steve King's N scale railroad, the third railroad in the Appalachian Lines) operations.
