Due to the commissioning of ETCS on Czech railway lines, many operators that run trains in the Czech Republic have decided to buy locos that are either prepared for ETCS installation or that have ETCS already installed. The same applies to DB Cargo Czechia, which took delivery of an EffiShunter 1000 locomotive from CZ Loko. The loco carries service number 744 191-8 and was presented to the public at the Rail Business Days in Ostrava.
