"No soup for you!" - Yev Kassem (from Seinfeld)
My old line was that since the MKT was the Katy, these MKTT cars must have belonged to the K-K-K-Katy.
This isn't exactly a recent thing, Eric, unless I've really missed something. A lot of UP and MP covered hoppers were transferred (leased?) to MKT in the days just before the 1988 merger of MKT into MP. Historically, the MKTT reporting marks signified the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad Company of Texas.
