If you're asking about any two continents, our (Greek) Alco DL500 were
working
in parallel with their brethren, as the various kinds of USA- and
Canada-imported diesels, from the sixties era.

I refer you to the page http://alcoworld.railfan.net/greek.htm
for US/Canada-built diesel motive power in Greece. Also, for more
details, I suggest you look at the European Railway server, at
http://mercurio.iet.unipi.it/
