With the opening of the valley line between Garmisch-Partenkirchen and Grainau, the Bavarian Zugspitz Railway acquired four electric locomotives for adhesion operation. The two-axle valley locomotives for the valley line between Garmisch-Partenkirchen and Grainau, with serial numbers 4268 to 4271, were tasked with hauling a maximum of six passenger cars from Garmisch-Partenkirchen to Grainau at speeds of up to 40 km/h. With a second locomotive as the lead locomotive, up to seven passenger cars could be pulled.
