MKT 205 at Tower 55         
FORT WORTH TX May 26 1985 -- Katy GP40 205 crosses the diamonds at Tower 55. EMD built the 205 (s/n 34088) in August 1968 and delivered it in red. This unit was the first GP40 to be repainted in the green and yellow scheme. After the merger it became UP 511 on Jan 8 1990, was retired Oct 9 1992 and then acquired by Missouri & Northern Arkansas Railway in late 1992 as MNA 511 and later MNA 4010. Leroy Brandenburg shot the 4010 on May 17 2012 in red and grey.
