  List of GM-EMD locomotives - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cowl units, originally produced at the request of the Santa Fe, had a full-width 'cowl' body built on a hood unit frame which provided all the structural strength; the bodywork was cosmetic, rather than a load-bearing bridge truss frame as in cab units.
In addition to the more common models noted above, EMD built several motorized railcars, integrated streamliner trainsets, and experimental locomotives at the beginning of the streamline era in the late 1930s.
The vast majority were EMD engines and components inside a carbody built by another manufacturer, since EMD did not have the ability to build their own bodies until 1936.

The EMD E5 was a 2,000 hp, A1A-A1A passenger train-hauling diesel locomotive manufactured by General Motors' Electro-Motive Division of La Grange, Illinois, and produced exclusively for the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad ("The Burlington Route") during 1940 and 1941.
The last surviving EMD E5 diesel is owned and operated by the Illinois Railway Museum in Union, Illinois.

EMD can lay claim to being the company that ended the dominion of the steam locomotive on the world's railroads, by both producing high-quality, reliable locomotives, and just as importantly (maybe more so) knowing how to sell them.
The 1960s saw EMD consolidate their position as the dominant locomotive builder in the USA; new, high power locomotives, like the 3000 horsepower (2.2 MW) EMD SD40 and the 3600 horsepower (2.7 MW) EMD SD45 V20 were produced and proved highly successful.

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 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.
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.

The steam engines used just prior to diesels were Baldwin 2-6-0's and 2-8-0's, and were numbered 105, 125, 130 and 135.
The original parent company for the ADandN, Crossett Lumber, used Shays.The ADandN became "dieselized" in 1948 with the purchase of four GE 70 Ton units, and later switched to EMD units.
The ADandN adopted a new numbering system in 1978 which corresponded to the horsepower for a given unit, (shown in the first digit/s) and the time of acquisition (shown in the second digit/s).
