Bruce said, "In my view, twin appropriately sized engines with a single 
shaft
cannot be beat for redundancy, power flexibility, efficiency and
safety."

I thought he was referring to a mechanical linkage involving diesels only - 
no motive electricity. I once saw such a massive gearbox being built for a 
USCG cutter at Avondale Shipyard outside New Orleans.
