thanks jim jools-I had googled that article and thought Diesel was a bit too obvious for the answer.I know he patented the engine, but did he invent the first diesel locomotive as well?Google seems to think the railway companies developed diesel power, but don't mention one particular person as the locomotive inventor-confusing!
