	Alco versus EMD
		ALCo's initial participation in the diesel industry was a direct response to the Kaufman Act, passed by the State of New York in 1923 and amended in 1924 and 1926.
		ALCo executives initially refused to admit to their customers, to industry analysts, to their investors, or to themselves that the cherished steam locomotive of the past would no longer be the power source of the future.
		ALCo's transformation from a steam locomotive builder to a producer of diesel locomotives failed because its management, constrained by an outmoded corporate culture, did not perceive that their company would require a radical and comprehensive transformation if it were to survive in the diesel locomotive industry.

	ALCO PA - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The ALCO PA was a family of A1A-A1A diesel locomotives built to haul passenger trains built in Schenectady, New York in the United States by the American Locomotive Company (ALCO) between September, 1946 and December, 1953.
		Like its smaller cousin, the ALCO FA, the PA had distinctive styling, with a long, straight nose tipped by a headlight in a square, slitted grille, raked windshields, and trim pieces behind the cab windows that lengthened and sleekened the lines.
		The ALCO 244 diesel prime mover proved to be the undoing of the PA, as the locomotives failed to capture a marketplace dominated by EMD.
