A total of 257 machines of the universal electric locomotive series 1042 were built from 1963. From 1966, more powerful motors were installed in order to reach a top speed of 150 km/h. These locomotives were given the series designation 1042.5. By installing a resistance brake, they received characteristic roof structures and, compared to the locomotives delivered previously, reversed single-arm pantographs. They were used on all types of trains, but mostly on fast passenger and freight trains, including cross-border trains to Germany.
The 1042.645 was assembled at Simmering-Graz-Pauker in Graz under the serial number 71120, while Siemens was in charge of the electrical part. After delivery in March 1975, it was based in Vienna South.
