Trying to find a yard

OK, I’m trying to find the plan of a certain railway yard that has appeared in MR. I know there was a prototype plan and there may have been a model plan as well. This is what I can recall:

The location I believe is Ohio, WV, or Maryland. It is a very large yard and it is along the gentle curve of a major river. I believe the round house/turntable was opposite the center of the river curve.

OK, I may be crazy but it’s been a long time since I visited the boards do to real life and I’m just now getting back to my model railroad. I’m planning a trip to PA, WV and OH to take photos and I’m trying to find all the interesting railway stuff I can, primarily B&O. I remember the yard looked very cool and any help you can provide would be appricieated.

Thanks!

Sounds like Hinton, WV, on the C&O. This might help: http://www.trains.com/mrr/default.aspx?c=a&id=1759

Bingo!

That’s the place. Thanks! There’s also an article in the September 1994 MR.
