Remarks & Notes

DAMN THE TORPEDOS, FULL SPEED AHEAD! Under a typical moisture laden western Washington sky, Burlington Northern Interdivisional Freight from Everett to Longview, WA rolls along Puget Sound. Today's power is three GP9's and a GP7 all equipped with air reservoir tanks on the roof tops resembling and earning them the nickname, torpedo tubes!
