Cato Blue (livery)

Cato Blue is an informal term describing a New Zealand railway locomotive livery (resulting from the combination of blue, grey and yellow in the colour scheme) found in common usage amongst the railfan community. Introduced in 1995 by Tranz Rail to replace New Zealand Rail's blue livery, introduced in 1990. The scheme was known as Cato blue after its creator, Cato Partners.[1]

It was then replaced in 2001 when Tranz Rail introduced the Bumble-Bee livery to promote level crossing safety.
