No. Not even close.

Hinge on that word for a moment. I realize where you're coming from with this, but that word answers the question. It was almost like Earth-10005, but it was not the same. And truthfully, I don't see how you call this almost the same as the main timeline until the shut down the sentinals and Wolverine slips back to the future. For example:


 * Wolverine goes to New York: First and foremost event that shows Wolverine waking starts off a new timeline. Yes, Charles gets his **** together in the Earth-10005 timeline and the school becomes what we know in the future, but Wolverine is not the one who gets him there in Earth-10005, and I'll postulate not as soon, either.
 * Magneto being busted out of prison: It's obvious from the other films in the series that Magneto doesn't stay at the Pentagon Prison for long, but he wasn't broken out in 1973 (hence the "It's complicated" from Future Magneto before Logan goes back).
 * Trask doesn't die: This is a major one here. The talk before Logan travels states that Mystique will kill Trask at the Paris summit, but she is interrupted by Charles, Logan, Hank and Erik, who of course decides to play eugenics. Again.
 * The Baseball Stadium: Surely that never happened in Earth-10005, since it only occurred in the film because Trask didn't die in Paris.
