History

Production started in 1965. A total of 80 locomotives were built until 1971, with the first eight built by Alco, and the remaining 72 by Euskalduna. Four locomotives were rebuilt for Teco de Media Distancia freight service trials.
Regular services with Renfe have ended, and some locomotives are used by Adif to haul maintenance trains.
