@Rocketboy1950
theres a bolt missing from generator to engine mount, look at 2.45 top of picture, where normally 3 bolts go there r only 2 and a hole!
More important is where the bolt went!!

@jayfine01 Different manufacturer, different look. ALCO's are four stroke, so are GE's. EMD's are two stroke. The principle is the same. Diesel engine drives a generator or an alternator to provide electric current for traction motors to turn the wheels. You can Google all of this stuff.
