Gary,

I have a copy, it is a 100 page book (8 1/2x 12) mostly with photos  
however they are small. 2-3 down one side of page with discription on  
other side. The book covers the "highline" from Edgemont to Deadwood  
with historical and "contemporary" photos.
I see a used copy on Abe Books.

I don't know of any current books on the Black Hills, past books are:

Railroads of the Black Hills - Fielder
Photos and history of RR by a non railroader
Seen frequently, dont pay too much.

Making the grade - A Century of Black Hills Railroading - Rick Mills  
- 1985
History of BH RR, photos.

125 years of Black hills Railroading - Rick Mills - 2004
History of all Black Hils RR, decent photos.
two used copies on Amazon
