How do I edit title? need caps General Motors Diesel

Suggest leaving this as an exisiting company. It is no longer General Motors however the name EMD Inc. is a continuation of the GM designs etc. just new owners. As it now stands edited it reads that GMDL was the name in the beginning, reading on we see how EMD became GM Diesel in London etc. and then currently, Electro-Motive Diesel Inc.

Merge into Electro-Motive Diesel??

This article has problems, and no references. Should it be merged into Electro-Motive Diesel? That article is pretty good, has many references, and a lot of editors who are interested. This North American RR stuff is easily sourced, there is a ton of it. Nobody is doing it here, send the stuff where someone will. Sammy D III (talk) 17:02, 3 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, this is the correct General Motors Diesel article.

Confusion arises from the similarity of General Motors Diesel, which is the topic of this article, with General Motors Diesel Division, which was an umbrella entity over GM's engine production operations in Cleveland and Detroit from 1938 to 1965. After the Cleveland operation was ended with its products folded into Electro-Motive Division in 1962, the umbrella structure became redundant and it was melded into the Detroit Diesel Engine Division in 1965.

The GMDD article seems way off base, BTW. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.208.11.42 (talk) 16:35, 1 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
