The EMD E3 was a 2,000 h.p., A1A-A1A passenger train locomotive manufactured by General Motors' Electro-Motive Division of La Grange, Illinois.
The E3 was the fourth model in a long line of passenger diesels of similar design known as EMD E-units.
Compared with other passenger locomotives made by EMD before and after these models, the noses of the E3, E4, and E6 cab units had pronounced slants when viewed from the side.

 EMD E1 - Biocrawler   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The EMD E1 was an early passenger-train diesel locomotive developing 1,800 hp, with an A1A-A1A wheel arrangement, and manufactured by General Motors' Electro-Motive Division of La Grange, Illinois.
The E1—along with the more-or-less simultaneous EA/EB for the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad and the E2 for the Union Pacific Railroad, Chicago and Northwestern Railway and Southern Pacific Railroad—represented an important step in the evolution of the passenger diesel locomotive.
This basic "slant nose" style was continued in the subsequent E3, E4, E5 and E6 models, while a more "bulldog nose" style was tried in the E2 and a style somewhere in between was used for the E7, E8 and E9, as well as the freight diesel cab units.

EMD launches with online nursing admission assessments in the Surgical Admission Unit and the Ambulatory Surgery Center on January 9, announced Kevin Tabb, chief quality and medical information officer.
Then, EMD “goes live” on inpatient pilot units, C2, D1 and D/E Ground, on January 17.
As EMD is installed, Stanford physicians and nurses will live in “two worlds” temporarily, Tabb said.

 Fibromyalgia - a nutritional approach
The mitochondria are the key elements in all body cells, and particularly in muscles and the brain, and are responsible for breaking down fats and Pyruvate (produced during digestion) to yield active metabolic energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate.
It is generally accepted that Fibromyalgia relating to EMD may be partly genetically predetermined and it is interesting to know that all mitochondrial DNA is derived from the unfertilized ovum and hence all characteristics encoded by the mitochondrial DNA are maternally inherited.
EMD related syndrome can, however, also be acquired, which means that it can arise later on in life, due to exposure to environmental factors such as infections, severe weight loss, shortage of oxygen in the tissue, dehydration or exposure to certain toxins.

EMD E4 The EMD E4 was a 2,000 hp, A1A-A1A passenger train-hauling diesel locomotive built by the General Motors Electro-Motive Division of La Grange, Illinois.
The E4 was the fifth model in a long line of passenger diesels of similar design known as EMD E-units.
The 2,000 hp was achieved with two EMD model 567 V12 engines developing 1,000 hp, each engine driving its own generator to power the traction motors.

 Precion Craft Models Diesel EMD F3 Phase 2a A/B Set
EMD’s F3’s began showing up on the rails just as World War II was ending.
As the wartime restrictions were being lifted, a tremendous burden was placed on the railroads as economic prosperity began to take off across the U.S. The days of the glorious steamers were numbered as many railroads were in dire need of motive power replacements.
EMD was to build 1107 "A" units and 694 "B" units before production was changed to the newer F7’s in February of 1949.

 S. Berliner, III's EMD Page
The 6900 is preserved in running condition with the venerable 4-8-4 Northern 844 and 4-6-6-4 Challenger 3985 at UP's Cheyenne roundhouse (and the 6946, built 9-1971, b/n 35520, last of 47 "Centennial" locomotives constructed, was donated by UP to the Feather River Rail Society and sits at their Portola Railroad Museum in the high Sierras).
EMD declined, stating low profits forecast for another special design, and referred the UP team to the Berlinerwerke, with which EMD had a close working relationship.
The DDP45 uses two standard EMD D trucks with heavier journals, spanning two pairs of DD35 fuel tanks (it was felt that it was safer and less expensive to have multiple smaller tanks).

 EMD - Calbiochem: Ubiquitin-Proteasome Interactive Pathway and Product Listing
In the ubiquitin-proteosome degradation pathway, Ubq is first covalently ligated to target proteins by a multi-enzymatic system consisting of Ubiquitin-activating (E1), Ubiquitin-conjugating (E2), and the Ubiquitin-ligating (E3) enzymes.
The E1 activates a Ubiquitin monomer at its C-terminal cysteine residue to a high-energy thioester bond which is then transferred to a reactive cysteine residue of the E2 enzyme.
Ubiquitinated protein is then escorted to the 26S proteasome where it undergoes final degradation and the ubiquitin is released and recycled.

 MoPac Power - Screaming Eagles Over the Prairie
The six-car trainset lead by the E3 locomotives seemed to glide by on the inagural trip witnessed by admirers everywhere, and thus began the streamlined era on the MoPac system.
The BL2 was EMD's first attempt at the still new diesel roadswitcher concept, it's hybrid appearance (it was a precursor to the yet- to-come GP7) of a covered wagon with a nose walkway could be considered as something of a "streamlined roadswitcher."
The unit was retired in March 1970, and traded in to EMD for the new SD40s.

 Medical Staff Update
Launch of the EMD project at Stanford has followed a year of interdisciplinary studies involving a wide range of clinicians and other professionals, including, physicians, nurses, pharmacists and IT experts.
EMD works with SHC's institution-wide information system, IDX, which currently supports POE (physician order entry), used by physicians to input patient care orders.
Terminals supporting EMD will be available on all units slated for EMD implementation before or during the transition, Day said.

 Green Car Congress: Gates Introduces New Systems Line for Fuel Efficiency and Emissions Reduction
EMD spins the engine to a very high cranking speed enabling a rapid, silent and fuel-efficient start.
The EMD system will be used in the 2007 Saturn Vue and 2007 Chevrolet Malibu, according to Gates.
The Gates E3 Drive is a two-speed drive system that allows accessories such as the air conditioning compressor and alternator to operate at idling speed, where fuel is used most efficiently by these accessories, while the engine still operates at drive speed.

 EMD builder plates
EMC began using the cast bronze plate on its E3 units (the EAs, E1s, and E2s did not have builder plates).
The aluminum plates were only for a short time in late 1964-67 (EMD and the railroads soon learned what battery acid does to aluminum).
In about 1978, EMD began applying the model to its builder plates, replacing the previous usage of the wheel type, i.e., 0-6-6-0 for an SD40-2.

 Engines - Diesel
The Electro-Motive Division (EMD) of General Motors produced the GP (General Purpose) line that began their lives as freight haulers and then were used as switchers at the central rail yards.
The RS-1 was introduced in 1941, combining the accessibility of a switching locomotive and the higher speed tracking of a road unit.
EMD E3 and E6 Electro-Motive Division of GM designed the EMD E3 as a stock model, making it easier, cheaper and faster for railroads to modernize passenger service.
