About MV Klickitat
MV Klickitat was a Steel Electric-class ferry operated by Washington State Ferries. Originally built as MV Stockton in San Francisco for Southern Pacific Railroad, she started out serving Southern Pacific Railways on their Golden Gate Ferries line on San Francisco Bay. She was purchased by the Puget Sound Navigation Company in 1940, moved to Puget Sound, and renamed Klickitat. PSN operated her until Washington State Ferries acquired and took over operations in 1951. In 1978 Klickitat was used for exterior shots in the Emergency! TV movie "Most Deadly Passage", a story about this ferry catching fire while at sea due to gasoline, instead of diesel, being put into one of the ship's fuel tanks. It was being used on the Seattle-Bremerton route in the episode.
