Katy bought a bunch of used engines to take care of increasing business. I remember some came from Conrail. Can't remember where the orange/yellow ones came from.

The yellow ones were the extended height units from Kennecott Copper, and the orange and white ones were from the ICG or maybe IC. The yellow ones were shortened before delivery to the Katy. I believe they are GP39's.

The 383 has the raised bottom fuel tank too.
