As the merger between the Missouri Pacific and Union Pacific was finalized in 1982, the “Jenks Blue” scheme was incrementally phased out with UP’s “canary yellow” over any remaining MoPac owned engines. However the SD50s were delivered in the “Canary” , UP yellow scheme with “Missouri Pacific” lettering. Gradually throughout the mid-late 1980s, these locomotives had the “Missouri Pacific” lettering removed, in favor of Union Pacific’s own name/lettering.
