Black Hills Central Railroad #110, a 2-6-6-2T, Mallet type steam locomotive puts on a fine show of smoke and steam as it travels through the hills of South Dakota. This rail line has some of the steepest grades in the United States at up to 6%. The #110 was originally built as a logging locomotive in 1928 for the Weyerhaeuser Timber Company. It spent most of it's time in the woods of Washington state. It was retired in 1968 and later put on display in Heber City, Utah. Then it was sold to the Nevada railroad museum, and later to the Black Hills Central Railroad where it operates today. Sister engine #108, also a 2-6-6-2 logging locomotive is currently under restoration and will become operational likely this Fall. Filmed in August, 2019.
