Locomotive in reality
The 163 series locomotive, derived from the 363 series, is based on the need to operate on lines with 3 kV DC voltage. In the early 1980s, the situation in rail transport began to change, with the 140 and 141 series locomotives due to be phased out in 1985 without sufficient replacements. This led to Škoda commissioning a new series of locomotives capable of operating under DC traction. Although a prototype of the 163 series was never built, prototypes of the two-system ES 499.1 locomotives (today's 363 series) were used for development. The 163 series locomotives are therefore part of the so-called second generation of Škoda locomotives.
The production of 163 series locomotives took place in 1984-1986 (factory designation 71E) and later in 1991-1992 (99E) in the Škoda company in Pilsen in cooperation with ČKD Polovodiče. In addition to the newly produced locomotives, several units of the 163 series were built as a result of the change of chassis from the 363 series to the 162 series in 1993-2008. These locomotives are used in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and previously in Italy to haul passenger and freight trains.
At the same time, the 163 series locomotives are still active and successfully serving in their role as universal line locomotives. Some of these locomotives were previously leased to Poland, where they returned to the Czech Republic at the end of 2015.
