the Katy's Texas Special


The Texas Special passenger train was operated jointly by the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad (the MKT or the Katy) and the St. Louis-San Francisco Railway (the Frisco) between St. Louis, Missouri, and San Antonio, Texas, from 1915 until 1959. The Katy then changed the northern destination from St Louis to Kansas City after the Frisco discontinued service from St. Louis. The train ceased completely in 1965.  A Howard Fogg painting used for a greeting card. See earlier posts
