[:)]Trains issue Apr. '95 “Tower tribute” by Brian Pulus, showed open towers in northern W.V. & Maryland and Southern Penn. I need an update on the towers in that area that are still open for a trip I’m planning. Any help welcome. Thank yor, rrbobby.
only active " tower" from cumberland west is the in the yard office in Connellsville PA, the VI office…Glennwood tower located at Glenwood Jct in pittsburgh, on the P&W sub, was open untill the last part of october. But sad to say, it is now closed…

The only active tower left in Maryland is WB tower in Brunswick.
Others, such as Miller tower in Cherry Run WV, were closed as CSX modernized its signal system.
WB in Brunswick is still active, with a new paint job and some recent restoration. Authough not accessable very close, it is DIRECTLY across the tracks from a public park. (See mu park site image page, it has a few shots of it: http://trainheartedguy.tripod.com/park.htm)
