History
In the 1970s, the newly-founded OSE is also focused on supplies from Eastern countries. In 1972, OSE buys 12 shunters, numbered A.151 to A.162, from Romanian Faur. Similar machines also circulated in Poland, Hungary and elsewhere. In 1979, seven more diesel locomotives were added, but with a stronger 750 hp engine. They were numbered A.171 to A.177. Faur engines have been working for almost 30 years.

Livery
The coloring of the locomotives consists of a white vertical stripe on a brown color covering the largest surface of the vehicles. In the masks, these strips join together, creating a triangle.
