All American Passenger Diesel Locomotives

Diesel locomotives designed to haul passenger trains in the United States, from the streamlined A1A-A1A engines of the late 1940s to the Genesis of the 1990s. An entry belongs here when the cited article calls the locomotive a passenger-train or passenger diesel locomotive. It excludes freight and road-switcher diesels. 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.
