The Compania Inglesa del Ferrocarril Bobadilla-Algeciras -later part of the Ferrocarriles Andaluces company- bought these locomotives to tow its fast trams, probably due to their prestige and widely use in the United Kingdom and also because the line dealer was a British company. When they were transferred to RENFE they changed the hard mountain ranges of Andalusia for the Alicante-Talavera and Torrevieja lines, where they stopped working at the beginning of the sixties. As it has been said, they were used to tow passenger trains. Their shortage is explained because of the difficult profiles throughout the peninsula.
