at 6000 HP, six units (26000-26005) were built & delivered between December 1987 and January 1988. These locomotives had Bo-Bo-Bo wheel arrangement and were controlled by thyristors. They had majorly served the Kirandul - Kottavalasa line throughout their entire service life.

Interestingly, the first unit "26000" was delivered by ASEA in December, 1987 & rest of the 5 units 26001-005 were delivered by ABB in January, 1988 post merger.

General Swedish Electrical Limited Company or Allmanna Svenska Elektriska Aktiebolaget (ASEA) in Swedish later merged with Brown Boveri on 1st January 1988 to form ABB (Asean Brown Boveri).
