Novelty 2025: In 1937, the Austrian Federal Railways ordered eight locomotives based on the German E 18 from the Floridsdorf locomotive factory for use on the newly electrified Western Railway. After the war, the Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) categorised the eight locomotives as series 1018. They underwent a series of modifications at ÖBB. The most visible difference was the redesign of the front ends. The main switch and other electrical components were also adapted to the ÖBB standard programme. The use of the 1018 ended in the early 1990s, although the 1018.05 was kept operational for nostalgic use until 2001.
