This may look like a diesel, and it is clearly meant to look as non-steam as possible, but just look under the cab and there's the tell tale cylinders. Designed for use in the OMV oil refinery, No 1 is the furthest away from the camera of the two parked in the siding here. Phil Horton, who took the photo believes that the 4 locos are unique to the oil refinery at Schwechat near Vienna. All the fireless locos were retired in 1998 and went to Strasshof.
