At least UP stayed with the same brand when the prime mover was changed out. An E unit with a GE 4 cycle diesel ,or a CAT, Sulzer or Cummins would be too strange. The whole subject reminds me of the first Pennypacker "Diesel spotters guide" re-power section. As far as the railroad sees it, whatever works is good enough. It's all part of the fun of this little understood hobby of ours, confounding wives, friends and coworkers for generations.
