By the mid 1970’s, MKT (also know as the “Katy” by railfans), started to transition to a new green and yellow paint scheme with lots of front end striping. They dropped the then-familiar “Katy “ logo to a simplified large “MKT” along the sides of their equipment. Sometimes being compared to John Deere tractors, these brightly painted locomotives were very eye-catching compared to other railroads.
