henry6 GE has so much going on this will not have an impact on any particular part of the the rest of the company. In fact, NBC Universal is so small, it may only affect the brand of coffee they buy for the commissaries.

It's interesting that you mention the commissary as one of the articles I read about the deal mentioned the corporate culture clash between Comcast and GE. When Comcast bought the first "chunk" of GE they stirred up controversy at 30 Rock by moving all the top executives down to a lower floor, assigning them smaller offices and requiring them to dine in the cafeteria with all the other employees..
As far as GE transportation systems they are already the dominant locomotive builder in the North American market and GE's shedding of a non-core business doesn't change that...

Now that GE has sold off its' 49% stake of the NBC network for $16Billion US dollars ( http://apnews.myway.com//article/20130213/DA4DFLN01.html ), will the influx of funds help GE to dominate locomotive manufacturing?
