Engines
EMD has produced the following series of engines:
- EMD 567 — no longer in production; 567AC, 567BC, 567C, 567D and "567E" engines may be retrofitted with 645 Power assemblies and other major components, mainly for so-called "life-extension" programs; 567E engines are actually 645E blocks which were originally manufactured with 567 power assemblies
- EMD 645 — "E- and F-Engines"; currently in production by request; most 645 major assemblies remain in new production for replacement purposes
- EMD 710 — "G-Engine"; currently in production; Unit injectors on pre-1995 engines, Electronic Unit injectors on post-1995 engines
- EMD 265 — "H-Engine"; currently in production, but there have been very few domestic orders in recent years, and most existing 265-powered locomotives in North America have been removed from service and have been scrapped after removing all reusable subsystems and components, possibly for resale overseas

Famous quotes containing the word engines:
“America is like one of those old-fashioned six-cylinder truck engines that can be missing two sparkplugs and have a broken flywheel and have a crankshaft that’s 5000 millimeters off fitting properly, and two bad ball-bearings, and still runs. We’re in that kind of situation. We can have substantial parts of the population committing suicide, and still run and look fairly good.”
—Thomas McGuane (b. 1939)
