To meet the ÖBB's desire for the rapid delivery of new locomotives for freight transport on the Tauernbahn, four locomotives were diverted from a series of the Swedish type Rc 2 that was under construction. The locomotives, equipped with thyristor technology, performed well, and a total of ten machines were delivered by 1974. Few other series in the ÖBB had such a diverse range of labeling variations during their service time. The 1043 002, one of the locomotives in the "ÖBB-Jaffa design," was in operation in the 1990s with an umbra gray roof, frame, and chassis. The upper decorative stripe was placed above the front windows. The locomotive plates were removed, and the locomotive numbers were affixed as adhesive digits on the frame.
