Diesel-electric locomotives built by General Motors, General Electric and Alco for the American railroads, from the first road diesels of the 1930s and 1940s to today's AC-traction freight engines. An entry belongs here when the cited article calls the locomotive a diesel-electric locomotive built by an American manufacturer. It excludes passenger diesels, British and European locomotives. Entries are placed by what their own cited article says, so each one sits in the narrowest group its source supports, and the group page lists it beside the other members.
