With its unusual axle arrangement (1A)’Bo(A1)’, the locomotives of the 1670 class had a special position in the OBB vehicle fleet. The two middle driving axles are firmly mounted in the frame, the outer driving axles are combined with the neighbouring running axles to form a bogie.

The locomotives were initially intended for express train service, especially on the Salzburg – Innsbruck line. The 1670.02 was built in 1928 by the Krauss & Co locomotive factory in Linz. It was based in Innsbruck from 1965 until it was withdrawn from service in September 1980 and had the fir green colour scheme and no OBB logo until the end.
