Novelty 2025: At the end of the 1980s, PKP needed a new locomotive series that could cope with the demands of continuous transport at 160 km/h for fast passenger services between Warsaw and Krakow. The EP05 series locomotives converted from the EU05 from 1973 onwards were limited in number and were getting on in years. Pafawag therefore designed a new locomotive type 104E in Wroclaw. The machines fulfilled the expectations placed in them to such an extent that the PKP acquired a further 45 machines by 1997. The EP09 was used across the board and almost completely replaced the EP05.
