Milw 17 East At Pizarro

What a fine-looking train #200 is on the afternoon of August 26, 1978, sweeping around the big curve at Pizarro, Washington on the Gap. Four big SD40's leading a big train of Seattle intermodal, a half-dozen mechanical reefers of potatoes out of Othello, and a handful of merchandise cars on the head end. Look at those container flats! Stretching as far as the eye could see. . . .
