In the 1980s, the CSD and the DR decided to procure dual-system locomotives in order to simplify the constantly increasing flow of traffic and operational processes in cross-border transport along the Berlin-Dresden-Prague line.
The development of the Decin-Prague connection at a maximum speed of 160 km/h made it necessary to upgrade several locomotives. From 1994, six Czech class 372 locomotives were adapted for the faster international passenger trains and have since then run under the class designation 371 - "Turbobastard". The CD relocated these converted engines to the Prague depot.
