BHC 110 |
| Description: |
This is the smallest articulated steam engine I have gotten, the biggest is the DM&IR Yellowstones. What a steam engine to pull trains up the steep 6% grade to Keystone. It take at least 8 units for BNSF and UP to get their trains over the grades in California, so this is a feat |

BHC 110, a 2-6-6-2 pulls 6 passenger cars to Hill City and up a 6% grade, even BNSF and UP can use one unit for their trains up even a 2.2% grade |

BHC 110 and 63 |
| Description: |
How often does this happen, a steam engine and a diesel meet in the same photo, maybe in the 1940s and 1950s, but often in 2010, 2-6-6-2 #110 is going to get serviced before the next rip and GP9 #63 is sitting silently, I would have liked to hear the 567 engine |

Now pulling the train backwards back to Keystone, we got to see the scenery of the Black Hills. This is a neat tourist line, it's a must see |
