Montana route 10

Wikipedia lists Montana route 10 on the list of numbered primary state highways, yet when I go look on OSM, Bing and Google maps to verify that a "Montana State Highway 10" exists, I'm getting no proof of its existance. Does this highway exist and if so, where does it start and where does it end? Please help me verify that this highway exists.
Finally upgraded to Expressway after, what, seven or so years on this forum? Took a dadgum while, but, I made it!

I haven't been able to find it in any route logs anywhere either- I don't think it actually exists

 In  the  inset  map  of  Billings (2013  Rand McNally atlas), you  can find  MT 10  at  he  northern  end  of  Main  Street (US 87)

I think that's just an error relic of old US-10, because that would be the alignment that 10/312 followed east out of town. Montana DOT doesn't keep it in inventory as a state highway- just as a C class road. Roads lettered as I, N, P, S, or U are the only ones that can be but are not always state maintained.

Errors can more easily creep into Wikipedia in regions where we don't have an established editor base–Montana is smack dab in the middle of one of those regions. I have brought this thread up to the other Wikipedia roadgeeks and we'll have someone take a look at it.

Looking at the route log, I can't find any instance of "MONT 10".

Well, like corco said, it's essentially an error relic of that strip of Old US 10 and 312 that departs eastward from Billings. It starts from the Heights neighborhood on Main Street, then leaves town, partially parallel with I-90 and 94, then meet up at Exit 23/Fly Creek Road along I-94.
