In order to replace the costly and personnel-intensive steam locomotives in shunting service, the Austrian Federal Railways procured a series of 400 HP diesel locomotives of the 2062 series starting in 1958. The Jenbacher Werke in Tyrol built a total of 65 of these two-axle small diesel locomotives until 1966.
With its conspicuous cast-iron front shields serving as ballast weights, the locomotive was used throughout Austria in shunting and construction train service. On the branch lines of Lower Austria, these locomotives were found in front of passenger trains with one to two cars. The last locomotives retired from normal service in 2003. However, some of them are still in service today as works and construction locomotives with the series designation X262.
