[quote user="CSSHEGEWISCH"] <p>MPI uses engines from EMD, Caterpillar or Detroit Diesel/MTU, depending on the make and model of the locomotive. Railpower and NRE use Cummins engines for their gen-set locomotives.</p><p>Alco's diesel engines were designed and built by Macintosh & Seymour, which was eventually bought out by Alco. Similarly, Baldwin's diesel engines were designed and built by De La Vergne, which was later absorbed by Baldwin. Steam locomotive builder Lima purchased the Hamilton Engine Company in order to acquire a diesel engine builder necessary to preserve the company's locomotive business.</p><p>[/quote]</p><p>Don't forget that EMD used Winton engines before they designed the 567. Their early SC and NW switchers used the Winton 201A.</p>
