Energy Capital of the World

Gillette is called the Energy Capital of the World as they produce about 50% of the US coal supply. Since the coal is near the surface all they do is clear off the topsoil and scoop up the coal.

Also there are oilfields and natural gas so they really do earn the title. All through the day you hear trains of coal leaving town.

Outside the Cam-Plex they had a display of some of the equipment they use. Kenny has always been a fan of the oil pumpers.
