I've always suspected that the reason for the wartime restrictions on diesel locos was due to submarines. I'm not sure exactly when the practice started or which came first, but I believe many of the larger U.S. fleet-class subs were also diesel-electrics i.e. no mechanical connection between the diesel and the prop shaft.
