Considering that EMD is owned by Caterpillar (specifically the Progress Rail Services subsidiary), a CAT-liveried EMD loco makes tons of advertising sense - I'm actually surprised there aren't more of them (at least in the US) - especially when you have trains consisting entirely of Caterpillar consist. You could even have Progresss Rail-logoed locomotives for the leasing operations (which is, in fact, Progress Rail's third largest operation by revenue).
You know, the locomotive is really cool but there's a lot more to a train than just the locos. It would have been nice to actually see what the train is hauling.
Late reply...EMDX 1201 is still in service but it has been owned by a shortline railroad for awhile now. It was repainted and sold to the Arkansas & Missouri Railroad.
