In order to counteract the increasing demand for urban express services and the associated capacity bottlenecks, the Austrian Federal Railways ordered the 4061 series baggage railcars from the Vienna locomotive factories and the ABES group of companies (group of companies AEG, Elin and Siemens-Schuckert Vienna). A total of 25 1,600 kW railcars were ordered in two series. Since the luggage compartment did not turn out to be operational in everyday operation, luggage was rarely transported in the 4061. This was one of the reasons that the ÖBB decided to classify the previous "motor car" as an electric locomotive. Along with this, the new series designation 1046 came into effect on May 30, 1976.

The 1046 009 was the only locomotive with an old kit in the Valousek design.
