Old days? Still very much so today here in the US. It is called 'off road' diesel, and, except for the color and tax, it's exactly the same fuel. Or so I'm told.
Don't know the price difference but I'd suspect it's substantial. As the penalties for using it for inappropriately.
I've heard stories of inspectors going to county fairs and checking the
color of the diesel in the fuel tanks of pickup trucks. If you're
caught using the off-road diesel, the penalties are rather severe.
