First four locomotives were delivered to Yugoslav industry - two to "Đuro Salaj" paper factory from Krško, Slovenia, one to UNIS factory from Vogošća, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and one to Glogovac nickel mine at Kosovo. Other 31 locomotives were delivered to Yugoslav Railways Belgrade section that later become Serbian Railways.
