    I have a Kato loco in red and yellow, with a 'Katy' logo and M-K-T on the side.

    Am I right in thinking this is Mississippi-Kansas-Texas? Has anyone got any info on whether it still operates?

    "Katy" was acquired by UP in 1988.

    Great stuff, thanks very much indeed :)

    I thought it was KMT so that probably explains why I couldn't find any info on it :D

    My most favorite movie of all time! 'It's 106 miles to Chicago; we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.' 'Hit it!'

    "Well my baby caught the katy
    Left me a mule to ride
    The train pulled out
    I swung on behind
    Crazy bout that hard headed woman
    Hard headed woman of mine."

    A note for idiots like me, if you drive up to the Joliet State penitentary in a black suit and Fedora, pull off to the curb and sit on the hood with your arms folded. THEY WILL NOT SEE THE NERD HUMOR IN IT AND YOU WILL HAVE GUNS POINTED AT YOU!

    Just a PSA from a former College moron.
