Sorry to ask such a basic question (I'm not a railroader as I spent my life flying and organizing internation weapons R&D).

Was there a published standard for getting all the locomotives from different manufacturers hooked up together, and, if so, when was it developed and put in place? That's what they refer to as "MU" connection, no?
What train functions did it involve?

Neat photo by the way.
