It is likely a Cortland 555 line. They are a double tapered line, meaning both ends of the line are the same. Middle 60 feet of the line is heavier, makes for easy mending and roll casting. They made it two colors to indicate the double taper.
Nice thing is that when the "front" side gets worn out you can turn it around and tie that end to your backing and the end that was previously tied to your backing is the same weight and taper as you had before. You get 2 times the lifetime out of one line. Not the greatest for distance casting, but a good line none the less.
