Great Northern Depot, on West side of town. Presently maintenance-of-way offices. Upper level to tunnel and Chicago. Lower level to Vancouver BC

At south end is probably the only remaining GN Depot garden. Maintained by local retirees.

View to West includes the dock at which double and triple wide containers are unloaded.
Components headed for Boeing bigbird plant to the Southeast. Tours avalable.

Note Everett Junction to the South.

On the low-level road to Mukilteo you'll cross over the line to Boeing's plant. about 4% grade
Yes, transfers with the wide loads "own the railroad".

Mukilteo gets a Sound Transit commuter station, eventually. Direct transfer from ferries.
Not much room for parking automobiles.

=================================================================================================

On East side of Everett is the other end of the city tunnel, and the Amtrak / Sound Transit station. Commuters lay over here. Very multi-use station building.
