The progressive electrification of the DR railway network made it necessary to develop a four-axle electric locomotive in the early 1980s. Class 243 is a universal electric locomotive of the railway company of the German Democratic Republic (Deutsche Reichsbahn, DR) that was created from trial locomotive 212 001-2 and is used in all areas of train operation. The DR procured over 600 of them.
When the East German and West German state railways merged, class 243 locomotives were transferred to the DB AG fleet. There they were incorporated as class 143.
