Transmission temp towing

With my 05. Dually 4x4 6.0 power "stroke" towing 10,000 lbsmy transmission temp was almost 200 with tow button in and 179 ish when out. I was in small hills and coolant temp ran 208 ish and oil cooler always keeping within 10 degrees. Is the 200 normal? I was running 65 to 68 mph with 305,000 miles on the train and 10,000 on new factory 6.0
Thanks in advance Tony

Anything below 220°F transmission temperature is normal.
