Hi Bob:
I live here, does that count?
The main is still in South of Deadwood for a ways (to Kirk, I think). It's
covered up with fines as part of the "Rails to Trails" Mickelson Trail. The
"Mallet House" is still in Deadwood, with a museum (including a full-size
outline of a Mallet) inside. There is one of the depot buildings there too,
in service as a bank. The Custer-Hill City track is out, except in the yard
at Hill City. Haven't heard anything out of Costner's Rapid City Airport to
Deadwood line lately. His Casino's running behind schedule, so probably the
RR is too.
