Editing Winton Motor Carriage Company (section)

===Sale to General Motors===
On June 20, 1930, Winton Engine Company was sold to [[General Motors]] and on June 30 was reorganized as the '''Winton Engine Corporation''' subsidiary of General Motors. It produced the first practical [[two-stroke diesel engine]]s in the 400-to-1,200&nbsp;hp (300 to 900&nbsp;kW) range, which powered the early [[diesel locomotive]]s of [[Electro-Motive Diesel|Electro-Motive Corporation]] (another General Motors subsidiary), as well as [[United States Navy]] [[submarine]]s. In 1934, a Winton eight-cylinder, {{cvt|600|hp|kW}} 8-201-A diesel engine powered the revolutionary streamlined passenger train the [[Pioneer Zephyr|Burlington ''Zephyr'']], the first American diesel-powered mainline train. The Winton Engine Corporation provided 201 Series engines for rail use until late 1938, when it was reorganized as the General Motors '''[[Cleveland Diesel Engine Division]]''', which produced the [[EMD 567|GM 567]] series locomotive engines, and other large diesels for marine and stationary use. In 1941, locomotive engine production became part of General Motors [[Electro-Motive Division]] (EMD). In 1962, Cleveland Diesel was absorbed by Electro-Motive Division, which remains in business today as a subsidiary of [[Progress Rail]].<ref name=TugCleveland>{{cite web |title=Cleveland Diesel Model 278A |url=http://www.tugboatenthusiastsociety.org/pages/tugmach-diesel-historic-CDED-278A.htm |work=Old Marine Engines |publisher=Tugboat Enthusiasts Society of the Americas |access-date=2013-03-03}}</ref><ref name=Pinkepank(73)>{{cite book |last=Pinkpank |first=Jerry A. |title=The Second Diesel Spotter's Guide |year=1973 |publisher=Kalmbach Books |lccn=66-22894 |pages=25–26}}</ref>
